Sorry for the cross-post with other forums, but was suggested that I search here: I am 5'8" (yeah, that is WITH my boots on, stop laughing already!)... and I have the 2004 Coppa with a 31.5" seat height. I am not a gear-head, though I know that with my front and rear Ohlins I have a fully adjustable suspension. My question is, can I safely adjust my seat height DOWN about 1" so that I have full boots on the ground instead of the balls of my feet? it sure would make backing the bike out of parking spaces a whole lot easier. Next question... Which way to adjust? Finally -- Will I go in over my head or should I just let the professionals do it? (Note: I will be going in for the first (600 mile) maintenance this weekend).

As a part of the deal when I bought the Coppa Italia, I negotiated to get the MG Titanium pipes... now it is about time to take the bike in and have them put on. Searching this thread, nobody seems to have gone with the MG version of the Ti pipes. Any reason?
