@@arisonvasquez2902 Lowering straps are used for drag racing which is straight-line racing, usually over a 1/4 mile distance. Lowering the front end lowers the center of gravity and makes the bike harder to wheelie which is the enemy of forward momentum on a motorcycle. By having the front lower, you can apply more throttle and gain more speed more quickly. I raced a turbo-bike back in the early 2000s and using this strap knocked a full second off my time! To clarify, lower/quicker times are better! I hope that helps.
@@arisonvasquez2902 Sorry! I thought you were asking about the purpose of the strap. My guess is the original comment comes from not understanding the purpose of the strap and commenting without that knowledge. If (as I suspect the original poster thinks) you were to use this strap for everyday riding, it would be incredibly dangerous. Lowering the front end that much changes the steering geometry which makes it turn more quickly but less controllably and it makes it more difficult to turn the handlebars. It also lessens the amount of travel the suspension has to absorb bumps and instead of the suspension taking the punishment, it goes directly into the frame/chassis which makes for a difficult ride. On a drag strip the surface is as close to perfectly flat, level and straight as possible so, the suspension doesn't have to deal with surface irregularities very much. The only turn you make is at the end of the track to come back to the paddock area and that turn is done at very slow speed and the turning is manageable at that speed. Had the OP actually watched the entire video and listened to what the person was saying, they would have understood this is only for drag racing. Was that more the info you were looking for?

@@johnaltom4522 that covers up the whole front strap thing, but he mention being dangerous fot handling, leaning, turning ?
