For those of you who are looking into this product..........
I did a 1.373 short time followed by a 1.39 with a stock (not revalved ) zx12 shock this sunday, at 68". 170 to 175 suited...........
Dont ask the times, my HP regualator was messed up and I did not know it.................ugh.
Got it fixed after that, but that was the last time trial and it was time to make some money........

Those are great 60's, but for comparison what did you turn before installing the Link Pro?

I was turning 1.47 @ 63" on mine, stock shock no Link Pro. I'd like to see some solid before and afters before dropping that kind of $$$ for the possibility of a tenth.

300 bucks for a tenth at 60 foot............., thats almost two at the big end.........
several guys have told me they did 1.3s at 64" with it.
I did 1.50s at 63" for comparison
Like I said, I am not done yet, I think 1.35 is fully attainable...........

It's a adjustable shock linkage. It's replaces the piece that connects the frame, lower shock and dogbones together. you can adjust the point where the shock attaches to the linkage....

Basically, you can change the spring rate, separate of adjusting the collar on the spring.....
you can go from WAY soft, to WAY hard, with a turn of a bolt. Helps in the speed of the rebound too, cause it changes the levarage the swingarm has on the shock. Works great.

yea, and it works..........., i actually lowered the leverage in the garage so much i could push the tail, and put the oil pan on the ground..........., that was with a real soft setting obviously, of coarse, i am in the other direction..........

I think it's about $400 IIRC. Not in the budget for me at this time, but I like that others are having positive results with it. If it were say, $100, I would be all over it. But it's too expensive for me right now.

They work. I have one on my bike right now that I am going to be selling. Not because it doesn't work but because I went with a custom shock. PM me if interested.
