2002 yamaha fzs 600 rear suspension linkage rods
« 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.

Hey,
 
I'm not sure, this thread might help: http://foc-u.co.uk/index.php/topic,4000.msg32728.html#msg32728

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

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.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.

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