Lowering kit???

Yep, it has been lowered.

I agree. It sounds like it has the Baron's lowering kit installed. That kit includes a bracket to relocate the caliper as yours is.

Yep,you guys are right,it's a barons lowering kit.I looked it up on the barons site.I bought the bike a couple months ago and i can't talk to the original owner cus he past away.The romming charge would be a killer!Thanks again for all your help.
