Default Lowering...

Hi, I'm new to these forums, and new to motorcycles as well. I'm about to purchase a 2007 gsxr 600. I'm kind of short, and will probably lower my bike to make it easier on myself when coming to a stop/standing/moving it backwards. What do I need to do in order to lower a motorcycle? I've done it to my car, and that's easy, just jack up the car, take off the wheels, take off the springs/shocks, and replace everything. I have no idea where to start when lowering the bike though. Could any of you help me out with what to do?

Thanks
