They are low as they have a 17" rear. may have to get a GF 600 shock conversion

Re: NC29 REAR END LOWERED
the NC29 has the lowest seat height of ALL the modern sports bikes made right now!
you can jack the bike UP.. easy job + lengthen the side stand.

Re: NC29 REAR END LOWERED
how would i go about jacking it up.
and does a gf cbr 6 shock heighten the ride a bit?
coz i bought a £180 carbon can off him,
and my swing-arm bobbins smashed throught it
in under a weeek...
