Post by Christeg »

Does anyone who's installed the Suburban kit have any feedback on cornering clearance?

I have had no cornering clearance issues with lowering kit. However, I am not a notoriously fast or aggressive rider.

My knees love the lowered pegs.

I appreciate your feedback, Bruce - I'm trying to decide whether to buy an R1200R, R1200GS, or get another couple of seasons out of my trusty R1100R (leg room is acceptable with the seat in the highest setting). I'm six foot, so the GS would seem to be a no-brainer, but there's that beak, plus everyone I know has one.
