Nah, no prob, just when I corner, the footpegs drag a little. Taking off you don't bring the wheel up either.

haha well i was talking to boostquest specifically... i lower my bike 3 inches for the drag strip, and although it looks cool and feels nice having that much leg room at stop lights, my rear tire rubs the fender and its definetly a bit firmer ride, although not too bad.... but i like hauling ass through turns and stuff and lowering it would definetly effect that, some people don't have any choice, but if its close i'd rather tip toe a little, since lowering it won't change how how you sit on it when your riding anyways

What kind of bike do you have?? You have an extended swingarm when you lower it? You lower it wit race straps?

gsxr 1000.... naw no extended swing arm for me, i strap the front and have adjustable lowering links for the rear, so i can slam it for the drag strip on fridays and then in a half hour's time have it back to stock for tearing up the mountain on saturday morning

its enough to keep wheelies at the drag strip managable, but quick enough to change where it doesn't keep me from really riding the way i like
