Improved footing solves anxiety when stopping and getting in and out of the vehicle! Easily lowered by changing suspension and links.
Advantages of lowering the vehicle
If the toe is not attached to the ground, you will be nervous when starting and stopping the car. By using EFFEX lowering kit, you can get a great sense of security by lowering the vehicle height just a little bit. You will be able to feel the effect of the improved footing and lowering of the center of gravity when moving on the vehicle or when pushing and pulling the vehicle by hand.
Why EFFEX lowering kit is 18-20mm down The EFFEX Lowering Kit replaces the linkage between the rear shock and the swingarm to lower the seat height (ride height). This part can easily change the seat height so that the angle of the body becomes backward. If you lower the seat height, you will feel more comfortable when you step over the seat and you will feel easier to ride. However, when you actually ride the bike, the characteristics of the rear suspension will change, and the tire may interfere with the body of the bike, or in the worst case, the frame of the bike may hit the ground. In addition, since the movement at the time of cornering is greatly affected, the turning performance may also be significantly reduced. At PLOT, based on our extensive manufacturing know-how and data obtained from our racing activities, we have repeatedly designed each model from scratch and conducted our own tests in order to maximize the footing while maintaining rider safety and vehicle performance. As a result, the manufacturers were able to lower the seat height by 18-20mm, which is the best balance for each model. You can easily get a natural lowering position as if it is a stock part.
Points of Attention
* If there may be an instruction manual included, it will be written in Japanese.
The seat height is 825mm for New Model Katana. I'm 172cm tall and the base of my toes usually touches the ground when I step on it. The soles of my feet are sticky on one foot. The weight of KATANA is less than 220kg so I'm not so worried about it if I'm using it in daily life, but when there are slopes, gravel and small stones at the destination, I'm still worried about it.
The ride height has been lowered by 20mm from the OEM, and handling is much easier with the car straddled. It's the right thing to introduce.
The item itself is made of iron, stamped out with PRESS, and painted black, and is two ordinary iron plates. Other Manufacturers include Material:Although there were some products that were anodized treated in aluminum and were more ornate in decoration, I chose this one, which is about half the price difference, because it is almost invisible once it is installed.
Considering the price, I would like to see a little more effort in the quality of the product, but I am satisfied with the quality of the product as it fulfills my original purpose of improving the handling and security at the touring destination.
If you are currently riding a New Model Katana and want to improve your footing quickly, this is a Recommendation.View Detail
