Shorter Dog bones, rearsets or jack up plates?

I never actually fitted the double hard pegs I bought- they're the same as the old top blox- but they seemed wider than standard?

Not sure what it was, although I was much less confident on that left hander and not hanging off as much, I much preferred the right handers.

saying that, yesterday was the furthest leant over I have been - still can't get that last 3mm of the bt-14's though

fortunately(?) my crash later in the day broke my left peg hanger, so I'm going to have to get something new, the walter moto's look the most sensibly priced, but don't really look like they'd crash too well

I do have a zx-10r shock to go on the back, which will hopefully raise that, so I can lose the drop I have on the front yokes...

Is the rear currently as standard, do you have shorter dog bones? If not I suppose dropping the front decreases ground clearance a little further. Thanks for the feedback.

Buster's do jack-up plates, look them up, they're made by ER Racing or something. Had a set, one snapped the first time I dropped it. Right-hand one fouled the brake light switch so had to swap for a hydraulic switch.

Dogbones - no probs with stability, do it! Not much difference in softening the suspension really.

I found when i had the suspension more or less standard that the back wallows enough to grind the pegs - try notching the preload up by one - with a better shock the extra comp damping sorts this out but with stock you're stuck with preload only. 5/7 is too hard for the road but you can get away with it on the track cos it's smoother.
