Thanks to all for the replies, I will consider the additional options.
As far as lowering goes, I did that on the Vaquero. Yes it got me lower, but I did scrape alot more.

Im hoping to test ride another soon. When i first sat on the F6B in Cali motorcycle show, I was surprised on how 'light' it felt, and how I was able to pretty much flat foot the bike.

Thanks again for all the guidance, and Ill keep reading/researching.
