Hi I`m a newbie to the forum.
I`m interested in a set of Canyon Cages for my 2008 GTR 1400 which has been lowered by about 2cm or 20mm.
Has anyone fitted them to a lowered GTR? Will there be enough ground clearance when she`s lent over?
Welcome!!
Mine is lowered more than 2cm (1") and when it fell over with the Canyons, it JUST BARELY TOUCHED the bottom fairing in one little spot. I believe if it were not lowered, it would not touch at all (which is the design). Of course, yours is a 1st gen not 2nd gen, so the design is different, but the design goals of the bars was the same.
Keep in mind that when mine did touch (barely) from a non-moving tipover, the pegs were already touching before the cages did. So I doubt the cages will affect cornering lean at all, even when the bike is lowered. So go for it!
