I've seen one - it was basically an adjustable length dog-bone linkage.
Think it might have been on ebay - no time to look now - sorry

i have looked into these in the past
iirc there is an american company that do them, and a german company
i priced it up as being around 130 quid btw BUT - don't forget you will need to adjust the side stand and also probably adjust the suspension settings

Parts that work on a Mille usually work on a Tuono ..... and although there are a number of parts changed, this should even be low enough for Tim (if someone can give him a bunk-up).

Yeah - with them he can pick on someone his own size ... as long as the Emperor Penguins don't get involved (I believe he's more of a Humboldt man)

Nah - some shin-pads and ankle-guards should suffice

I have used Maxton twice now for lowering the wifes 675 and now the 695.
The Triumph was £70 IIRC but that was only supplied (that was in 2006 though)
The duke cost a lot more than the 675 and came in at £220 supplied and fitted but that also needed a new bump stop in the shock.
