Soon to be proud owner of a vstrom 650. Little higher tan I am used to though. Lower the suspension and lose the rubber pads under the seat. Will that help. Any advice gladly received

Hi Janmat  :welcome:

ask away in the vstrom specific section, and also use the search function, you'll find lots of ideas on how to lower! :) :) :thumb:
