theshee Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 Never had this problem before when adding a swinger, but when I put my link style +6 on yesterday, and then got the shock bolted up the ass end of the bike is going to sit way up in the air... The swinger sets really low, making the ass end of the bike really high.... I did it in a hurry but know everything is on there right, so why is it sitting like that? Any help would be great... thanks fellas. Here is the swinger I added, it is a link style for the stock dogbone and stock shock.... Quote
shanYE west Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 You gotta pic of it installed on the bike? Whats the shock length? Maybe take a measure ment from the pivot tube to the mounting eye's.. and compare them to another swinger? Quote
bansheefreak Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) sure thats not a no link setup... lets see pics of it... i bet it compares to wesw plus10.. the grab bar musta been 8ft from the ground.. Edited February 17, 2008 by bansheefreak Quote
shanYE west Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 swinger looks to be setup for a link.. Quote
dajogejr Posted February 17, 2008 Report Posted February 17, 2008 Up is link, down is no link... If you get a short enough shock, you can make it a no link. I'm pretty sure this is gonna be a duner, so...link is the way to go! Quote
theshee Posted February 17, 2008 Author Report Posted February 17, 2008 It was my shock preload... it was loaded all the way stiff, now you can actually move the back of the bike down after its on there. Before it was way up in the air and stiff as hell.. Still sits a little high, but im sure it will drop when I get it off the stand, on the ground and sitting on it... It just didnt look right on the stand yesterday. Thanks for the input fellas. Quote
