Default Re: A couple of pics of my R1 powered longtravel

Yes it is a 5 link. With the 5 link you can not mount the shocks inboard like on a trailing arm they are mounted very close to the wheel so I needed a longer travel shock to cycle the 19". We mocked it up with a set of 12" and could only get 14". I do still need to play with the valving and spring rate a little more though. I like a softer ride to get up on the whoops with rather than a stiff ride for jumping. I have the front perfect but the rear is still just a little too stiff.
