As said,.. you will loose cornering clearance...
You will also get a harsher ride...
...and... any time you feel a spine jolting thud,.. you are loosing traction... because when the shocks compress fully, the result is a bounce... there is no traction when your wheel is airborne...
What this means is...
lowering a bike is purely cosmetic... it is fashion... and fashion has a price...
Suspension, is a performance mod... it is about keeping tire contact and keeping traction... (comfort is just a side effect)...
I like both.. performance and comfort... so I like good suspension...
I also have a silk scarf... but, it don't slow me down...
