    You can purchase softer pre-load springs for the rear shocks which will drop the rear under load about 1 inch, and lower the front fork tubes in triple clamps for about 1 inch drop also. Video on YouTube, easy job....

    Hi Shaun 64, I have an XE and had the low seat fitted when I bought it. It makes about 30mm difference and I also got the front shock adjusted by about 15mm too. After about 1200 miles, it has bedded in and I have got used to it and I just take a little more care when I have to put my foot down.
