#3:   Author: sam988,  Posted: Wed Aug 15, 2007 3:48 pm Hi Geo, I realize this is an old post, but do you have anymore pictures of the process and bracket modifications you did to do this? I think that it looks great and agree that Yamaha should have done it from the start. I would like to try to do something similar. I think it would go a long way in "shortening" the tall skinny look of the 920's front end. Thanks in advance.

#5:  Re: lowered the headlight and cycom Author: geo,  Posted: Fri Aug 17, 2007 8:13 pm see the welds? i used sawed off angle iron for the drop piece. to lower the head light, i ground the welds for the "tabs" off to get them off then cut the round stock shorter then welded the tabs back on. cycomdrop3.jpg  Description:  Filesize:  66.08 KB  Viewed:  4 Time(s)
