we lowered mine the max on the PCS links and myself and one of the techs who is bigger than me got on it, basically bottomed out the bike but they swear I still would have a good 1/2" space left, still wasn't enough for me to feel safe with the Mrs on the back so I raised it back up to the 1" drop. It's relatively easy to change back and forth so go for it and see if you like it
