YAMAHA YZF 1000 R1 98-01 – lowering kit

Do you have a YAMAHA YZF 1000 R1 98-01 and want better foothold and a lower center of gravity? This lowering kit from Hyperpro gives you an effective and comfortable solution to lower your motorcycle by 30 mm.

Lowering spring kit – the optimal lowering solution

This kit contains lowering springs for both the front fork and rear shock and is the best and most comfortable way to lower a motorcycle. Hyperpro's progressively built springs ensure harmonious balance between the front and rear, providing better control and stability in all riding conditions.

Important things to know about lowering with a spring kit:
When lowering with a spring kit, the seat height does not change in an unloaded state, as the springs must have the same length as OEM in order not to sit loosely on the shock absorber. However, in a loaded state – when the rider is sitting on the motorcycle – the seat height becomes the specified 30 mm lower. The progressively constructed Hyperpro spring thus provides both better comfort and an effective, controlled lowering while riding.

This system is superior to traditional lowering methods because it preserves the suspension's working range and ensures optimal comfort and road grip, even though the lowering target is only achieved under load - precisely when it matters.

Advantages of Hyperpro lowering kit

• Lower center of gravity and improved cornering control
• Better footing when stopping and at low speeds – especially important for shorter riders
• Harmonious suspension balance between front and rear wheels
• Hyperpro's progressively tuned springs provide superior stability and comfort
• More confident feel during hard braking and aggressive cornering maneuvers

Assembly and setup

Professional installation is highly recommended as correct preload, measurement and setup are essential for optimal function and safety. Incorrect installation can negatively affect driving characteristics and wear.
