When shaving seat, taper the shave and remove A LOT from the front sides of where it narrows. Shave down to bare plastic really at edges. This makes front narrower and easier to straight-leg stand when stopped.

You can also lower front forks by taking out factory spacer above spring and cutting two sections off to reduce spring-preload. Slice off a 1/2" and a 1" section. Use hacksaw or thin cuttter to remove minimal amount of metal. Then you can mix-and-match the three pieces for 1/2" removed, or 1" or 1.5" removed. This will allow you to lower front-end 1/4", 1/2" or 3/4". You can add extra washer 92022B in between if ends of cut segments don't line up precisely.
