I've not gotten anywhere trying to sell the Stelvio. And to be honest with you all, I think the real reason I got it into my head to sell was the height question. There's just no way I am ready for any low assed cruiser (NEVER, NEVER, NEVER!!) but the instability I get with my short assed legs has just got me wanting a bike with my feet flat on the ground. Guess I've had just too many years of tippy toeing. I've got the upper body strength, it's just that my old Ma was a smokin, drinkin, partying gal (ah, those were the days) and I guess that just stopped the legs from growin when I popped out. :lol: So, stuck with 30" floor to crotch, I've just had
enough. But a little while ago I went down and fired her up and was reminded again how I love that Italian whore. My Big Gal. So it's back to the thought; can I lower her? Give me an inch and a half and I will be a reel happy camper. Then when my turn comes I might just have the old gal buried with me.
Is there is a link out there to throw on? I've read that there will be center and side stand problems but I can get them cut down. Then there's the guy on ADV who posted a lowered Stelvio with the bottom of the shock coming into contact with the swingarm. Is there any workaround for that? And, finally there's the naysayers who will say you will lose all that ground clearance. In my case? It will be a gain.
