Ok, so I should have my new seat and lowering links when I get home today. I just thought it would be a good idea to throw up a post to see if there is anything I need to know.
I assume the seat comes off pretty easily.....probably a couple bolts, so that shouldn't be a problem. For the lowering links, I was told that I'll need to install new bushings, or use the old factory ones. I may just buy new ones on the way home if they are cheap.
Are there any tricks to installing the lowering links that I need to know about. I'm just planning on putting the bike up on the stand and lifting it until just before the back wheel comes off the ground. After that, I'll remove the factory links, and lower the bike down on the stand until the new links line up. Am I missing anything else?
