Looks good Joe, making some headway. You can adjust your ride height with longer or shorter dog bone links. If you need to raise it use shorter dog bone links, if you need to lower it use longer ones.

In the extreme, they do change the swingarm angle, which can lead to chain tightening/slack issues.

Edit: If you get the bike too low, it won't corner worth a darn.

It's gonna sag down when you get that 210lb motor in there and you sit on it. Is Larry talking about loaded or unloaded height?
