F800GS lowering kit

[Emmsy Poo]

Can anyone advise if there is a lowering kit for the F800GS? I know I can get the lowered seat but having such a short arse i still need to lose about a couple of inches (ooh er).

Many thanks

I think there is a lower suspension unit but you then lose ground clearance and the centre stand becomes useless

Hyperpro kit on ebay right now. Retails at c. £200 so don't go silly.

Or there's a range of heights available to buy here.

Utter bollocks!

I've lowered mine by 25mm and the centre stand works as well as it ever did.

You should find a thread I put up about lowering the F8 if you do a search.

Mine was lowered when I bought it used, I never bothered putting it back to standard - think they said it was a Touratech kit on mine..
