Title: 2002 yamaha fzs 600 rear suspension linkage rods
Post by: jimmy on 08 February 2013, 07:39:02 pm

Hi,
I think my Yamaha fzs 600 2002 may have been lowered by a previous owner but im not sure. Can someone please measure their standard rear suspension linkage rods (between hole centers) and let me know the measurement?Thanks.

I think we decided that standard were 140mm centre hole to centre hole.
Shorter than that is raised, longer is lowered.
A few mm either way multiplies the height though.

No worries, glad you know now, you going to keep it standard or jack it up a bit?
