Fork lowering with spacer and spring cut on my BMW R100RT cafe racer build. Fork shortening 

In this video I will take you through fork shortening on my BMW R100RT cafe racer project using a spacer and fork spring chop. This is the first time I have attempted this and the result is perfect! I can now see the stance so once I have a few test rides can decide if a new shorter spring is needed or I'm happy to stick with what I have done. The fork lowering project cost under $20 and about half to full day for a first timer. I used 20mm irrigation riser from my hardware shop as the spacer and the only other parts needed was new fork oil, a M12 crush washer for the dampening rod screw and M5 crush washer for the drain screw
