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!

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.;)

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.
