Does any body know what changes in settings / dimensions between the standard XB9S and the Low.

I believe the rear shock is shorter -I know it is a different color.

Thanks

adrian.

Different rear shock, different fork internals, different seat.

Ride to the edge!

Will the shorter shock work on a XB12R? Seems like it should. I'd like my bike a little lower.

Don't do it without lowering the front fork. Otherwise, you will change the geometry of the bike. Will be detrimental to handling. That's what I heard.
