WANTED gt thunder or elka 400ex linkage

[j450rking]

i am looking to buy a gt thunder or elka rear shock linkage for a honda 400ex

tell me what you have and what you want for it

[gojk]

I have a brand new elka linkage. I am up for trades for 400ex or 250r parts or straight up cash. Let me know how much you think it is worth.

[j450rking]

what 400ex parts are you looking for????

[gojk]

I basically need the whole rear end. I need an extended swing arm(+1.25 or +2). I need an aftermarkey axle(LS or RPM). I need a brake rotor and break hub. If you happen to have an axle or swing arm, I am willing to put in the extra cash for the part.

[j450rking]

no i don't have any rear end stuff

how much do you want for the link?

no i don't have any rear end stuff

how much do you want for the link?

How about $150 plus shipping? I don't remember what I paid for it, so I just did a quick search and it looks like they are priced at $225 from a retailer. If $150 seems high let me know.

[j450rking]

did you ever use it? if so how much of a diference did it make?

[gojk]

I have never used it. It is brand new. I need an ELKA rear shock to use with it and all that I have is a stock rebuilt shock. I have had it for a while and just haven't ridden enough lately to justify buying the shock to go with it.

[j450rking]

do you have to use a elka shock with it?

No. Its like running a gt thunder linkage. Elka says its to be used with elka shocks only because "their elka". Their not going to say can be used with tcs because then elka might not sell as many rear shocks.

Also a rebilt rear shock like the tcs rebuild can be used with a aftermarket linkage. Actualy its sosposed to be used wit ha aftermarket linkage and if used will add about 1.5 more travle according to tcs. Thats what they tole me.

Actually I don't know that this is true. I have been told that this will not work with a stock shock, rebuilt or not. Something to do with clearance issues of the shock. This linkage has never been mounted so I cannot tell you for sure, other than an Elka shock, if it will work any other shock or not. If you have any doubts that this linkage will not work for you, please do not waste your time or money.
