How far can you drop an 08 in the triple?

[8secBusa]

Just curious how far you can lower an 08 with an aftermarket top triple clamp? Looks like with the taper at the bottom the limit is about 3/4".

1/2 to 3/4 is safe

3/4, good machine shop adding a little taper to the bottom of the clamp could get you more.

i wouldnt drop it no more then 3/4 of an inch thats how far i dropped mines. you go any lower you might have to buy a front fender. here is a pic of mines dropped 3/4 of a inch. And if you drop it any lower you will loose turning radius.
