Jack up kit
I have seen something on ebay called a jack up kit. It looks like 2 pieces of metal with a circle at each end. A bit like a dog done.
What are they? How hard are they to fit? Are they any good? Dan |

Re: Jack up kit
Answered your own question there! They are the suspension 'dogbones' that are often mentioned on here. They are the suspension linkage plates that connect the swing arm to the linkage pivot. look under your shock and you will see them bolted up to the pivot.
They raise the rear of your bike a bit and so make it steer a little quicker. Easy enough to fit, just jack up the rear end, remove rear wheel, unbolt the old ones, bolt up new ones..... The bolts can be quite tough to move though. Not done the mod myself, but under consideration. |
