Jack up kit versus dropping the forks.

[PieEater]

Having read Falcon's post regarding changing his usds back to right way up forks because of Spanish MOT bureaucracy, I noted that he'd dropped the forks through the yokes by 12mm. I currently run a 25mm jack up, but as I have the GYT-R bar lowering risers, the space between the fork top and underside of the handlebars is a bit limited but not impossible to drop the forks through. Just wondered how "radical" the 25mm lift was in comparison to dropping the front 12mm, and if the 25mm only equated to say only a 5mm fork drop, then 50mm dog bones would be the way to go.

I have the GYT-R risers and Renthal 758's the lack of clearance for dropping the yokes was the main reason I went with the 50mm jack-up kit, the other was I wanted the bike to be taller to fit me better.
