To go along with what Bill said, lowering the bike is NOT the end all of bike cornering performance if done right. I have watched riders with lowered bikes rail the corners faster than riders with $2k worth of performance parts. However there is a difference in the end, the riders with lowered bikes didn't drop their bike as often and spent their time learning more good stuff vs how to keep the bike on 2 wheels at 2mph.

Food for thought...
