Dubach Racing sells this radiator lowering kit, which is supposed to lower the bikes center of gravity,
and so making it feel much lighter on the track, and based on reviews I've read, this stuff is legit .
I wonder if this is actually true, and if I can continue to use these aftermarket radiator braces I got from JPS Racing ..
Any thoughts ?

It looks like mxa and transforms thought it was dope sauce. Try it and post up if you could feel a difference.

I don't think you will feel 1 inch lower radiators.
Try filling you're tank , then emptying 2 inches of fuel and see if you notice the difference.
If you do then the rad lowering kit might be for you.

hahah I guess ur right, but you must also consider the materials,
rads can be heavier than a plastic tank, sure its full, so are the rads tho
but yeah, I didnt think that lowering kit would make much of a significant difference,
just wanted to know what people have to say about it, or if anyone got one

I would get some tank foam first.
You will notice immediately when the fuel stops sloshing...its kinda crazy really lol

It depends on what level you are riding at. If you ride at a pro level, do ten laps, then lower the radiators, then do another ten, you will probably notice it.
