Why would you want to go with the no link?

Yeah I get that a lot to...:rolleyes: :o :p
No link is where the shock goes directly from the frame to the swingarm, where a link, will go to the links on the swingarm.
I had to go to a no link, because I am switching over to a crf engine, and got a lsr DC-4 swingarm, and frame, and it was the only think i could run, but it has soo much more travel!
Narly what are you currently using on the rearend??
I'd like to here what you have to say about going from brand X to the elka and which works better.

LOL... I am almost done, so dont worry, but when are we gunna get to race together again? Have you been at Albany or Madras? I wanted to be at Madras the last 2 weekends, but injury's say no. But we need to get together again!
Rico, I had the same shock, only link last time, and before that I had stock. So I am hoping that the new no-link will be better once I get it dialed in, but I herd that it is the hardest shock to dial in ever!? People said I was crazy for switchen, but i'll show them....:D I had to though for the 450... I will give the full report on if I wilke it better or not.;)
I remember when I had an Elka Elite rear shock, all the goodies and it blew up after 3 rides. Thats whan God smacked me with his Axis hand.

Im serious. After it blew up I sold it to 400exRacerX for a cheap price and bought a used Axis Rear. Much better. Never a prob and worked very well.
