I al looking at different rear lowering kits for my Stryker, but I don't know which one to get. I didn't see this subject anywhere else so I thought I'd start it. Thanks for the feedback...

There are loads of threads on this. Just put lowering into the search and you will find them. I have the L&M lowering spring on mine and love it. ;D

I really like the L&M lowering spring i had put on the stryker. Its a stiffer ride but looks really good.

I just put a Baron's links kit on mine and set it at the 1" setting. I really like the quality.

I didn't use a progressive rate lowering spring, because I had read that it stiffened the bike up too much (until you load it down). Not sure about that one, but my installer felt that would be the case. Everyone on here seems to love them.

The PCS links kit is really nice, too. The real benefit to it appears to be the quick height change ability from 1" to 2.25". I am running a 260 rear and have no desire to ever change lower than the 1" (unless it is back to stock), so I didn't need that option.

You will find every option and opinion on here. At some point, I am going air-ride.

I have a set of the PCS lowering links that I just put on last night on the 2.25" setting. It really messed with the 'stance' of the bike so I also dropped the front a little over an inch. Tomorrow will be the first time riding it like it is so I will get back and let you know how it rides. Its going to be interesting I'm sure because I was already scraping pegs before dropping it so it should be interesting.

How did you lower the front? If I do it and I really do then I'm doing both. Please pm me thx

PCS..it is a easy install and didn't change the way it handled.

If you are still looking, I am selling by PCS links. I went to a 240 tire and didn't want to take a chance of bottoming out when my wife and I ride. Shot me an offer.

As far as the front, I just loosened the triple tree clamps and pushed the forks through. Just be sure to use a precision measuring device so they are perfectly equal. Not sure what would happen if they weren't, but I didn't want to take the chance.

I just put on a set of Baron's on mine. Did the one inch. I torque it to what the instructions said but apparently that's the wrong spec.

might be a general spec not stryker spec. just torque down when you get a chance or leave it.
