1.  My stock ones are 5" on center.  I have two other sets, 5-1/4" and 5-1/2.  How far will they lower the rear? 2.  To compensate for the lowered rear, would I slide the forks up the same distance as the rear end was lowered, at least to start with? -JW

They should make about 3/4 difference each.  Yes on sliding up the fork legs the same.

We did take out the clips, didn't take the time do anything but switch the leaky seals.
