Aftermarket Linkages comparison

[GIXXER1KR]

Im running the Gt Thunder MX link with an aftermarket rear shock and couldnt be happier.

I would go with the ARS-FX or Teixeira Tech.

[D-7#61-450r]

I spoke with Elka back in July and they Said that the single link is no longer made. I have a single link on my 04 swinger and was hoping to by the link for my 07 and use the same rear shock.

That Teixeira Tech linkage is pretty pricey, is it really worth it?

Does anybody know if these can be used with skid plates?

whats a skid plate??!?! lol

Run the Lonestar setup. I did for a full year and i loved it. I wil never run a full skid again.

I run the LSR DC-6 link for MX and love it. Doesn't seem like it hangs too low for GNCC.

When you consider that you don't have to get a swingarm to go with the linkage like you do with ARS-FX, LSR Outlaw, Walsh, etc the price isn't that much. The Baldwin linkage costs the same and would be comparible for a "bolt on style linkage" (bolt to stock swingarms). This isn't you typical bolt on link like Elka, GT Thunder.

Certain skid plates will clear, some may take a bit of modification. A specific skid plate that mounts to the actual linkage is in the works.
