The best thing you could do to your bike to lower it would be to get some Lt250r shocks on the front and a rear lowering strutt and youd be set. sway bar, tires and your set..thats to start out anyway;)

Like Rider#11 said. Low is the way to go!! We took my rear stock shock(I have two,one for MX) and cut two springs out to make it MUCH lower. I lower my PSI on the insided tire(offest it ) along with inside shock also for better cornering.......I didint look at your profile.you have Nerfs I hope???? You will need them!! And get a sway Bar! Depending on what kind fo track your running on will depend on what tires to go with.We use everything from a Turf Tamer and grooved radials to Hoosiers or Amer. Racer tires here at our track. Depending on the size will also depend on your gearing .Im still debating gearing vs a CDI since I dont need a ton of top end on Shorttrack and the gearing is good off the line..So far all this works well for me..... Im lead in points:D

LOl.. yes, you can go that route too, but I dont like it as well, I feel you still need some suspention to work with .......But its better than nothing.......;)
