Question: how to lower the front end after installing lowering block in the rear?
I’m a rookie when it comes to wrenchin’ so take it easy on me… but how do you “set up” the bike to lower the front end after installing Motowerk’s lowering block in the rear?
Motowerk’s instructions:

Do you have the bike on the side stand?
Do you support the bike via the handlebars?
Use a paddock rear stand?
Must you have no weight on the front wheel?
How do you raise one side at a time if the bike has weight on the front wheel? Will the individual forks raise separately?
I have searched including youtube but can’t find anything to give basic information (pictures or video) on how to lower the front end. All the videos I have seen say “loosen this bolt, loosen that bolt, and lower the front.” Never do they show it actually being done.
My apologies if might seem basic to some but I don’t want to jack my new Versys by dropping the front end down to the wheel.
Thanks for any help.
