I think it is 1" lowered in the shocks, plus a lower seat height. The primary is also slimmer giving you a straight shot to the pavement. It actually works out to almost 2".

I told her "DEAL" but as I don't have PayPal she would have to email me the money. Haven't heard back

I believe all the 16 touring bikes have gone to the slimmer primary cover.

Having a lowered bike means you can get rid of your platform shoes, Mike.

Another great weather day in store here, Doc. I spent most of the day on the bike yesterday.
