: Suspension Set up

I just bought a 750 Gixxer set up for racing. I'm somewhat height challenged and with the bike set up the way it is I can't touch both toes on the ground at the same time. It has a Penske triple adj. shock in the rear along with a front end set up by Aftershock Suspension. If it has the proper attitude now for great steering, does it make sense if I lower the rear 10mm that I need to lower the front 10mm as well to keep the same rake? I know that if I lower the rear it will slow down the steering but make it more stable.

Thanks

if its setup right, don't change a thing.

Why do you need to touch the ground, do plan to stand around with your bike much or race it? I sure as hell can't and never have been able to.
