Pics of my rear lowered bike

Here is some picture of my rear lowered Savage.
I bought new springs 42 mm shorter and 9 mm thick instead of 8 mm, add a spacer of 10 mm,they are stiffer then original and work perfect.
This shocks are now 9,5 inch instead of 10,5 that lowered the rear end of the bike about 5 cm ( 2 inch )
Next step is to lower the front, the same way that CFlow did.






Here is a link if you want to see larger pics:

That'll look really good with front end dropped (best mod I ever did). Good work!

Looks sweet Odar, but I wouldn't expect anything different from your ride.

What are the springs off ?

Thanks!
I bought new springs from a company that make springs, the company name is Lesjöfors and they didnt cost mutch at all. They measured the springrate for original once. Then I gave the springs to a small company for hardcroming, all together less then 200$ and that now when the dollar is droppng compared to the Swedish krona.

Seat is from a company named GTS.
I have the thin Cobra model.
Bought it 7 years ago and like it a lot, its a bit hard but thats what I like, last year I took a ride for 400 miles over a day and was only little soar in my butt, think its worse with softer seats.
