Hey guys, I picked up a great deal on a used fully adjustable Axis rear shock, and it was supposed to work with a stock link for an '04-'05. Went, picked it up, brought it home, looked good. The guy said it needs to be revalved, but I figured he just ran the hell outta it, so the oil is so broken down, its not doing what it supposed to anymore, thus him thnking it was valving. Well I showed it to a friend of mine, and instantly he said, "the shock is too long for a stock link" So quick messurement, and he was right. Its 16.5" eye to eye, which is what my JB Superlink takes on my race bike. I planned on putting it on a stock link on my practice bike, but obviously I'm not running a long travel rear shock on a stock link, so does anyone know what link that works with a stock swinger takes a 16.5" shock? Me and my bro rebuild our own shocks, so I planned on doing that, and I got a set of Axis fronts for my Lonestar arms on my practice bike, so I would really like to have Axis on everything I ride. I would consider trading for a stock length rear Axis with Comp. and Rebound, and a few bucks just so it would work on my bike.
