now thats what i figured out concerning the rear susp stiffness. obviously, the dog bones to swinger mount is too low on the gixer swinger compared to the b12 swinger, thats why progression doesnt work
wrong way
right way
a medicine is
1. to use a higher profile rocker
2. to use a longer shock
btw, the susp starts working when the bikes lowered, coz the angles'd change and become 'workable'

Do you have Autocad, really helps in situations like these!
Happy to draw a simple diagram if you give me the dimensions.
thanks lots Hagarr i believe ive sorted it out with the pics, later i'll buy smth like that http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NzY4WDEwMjQ=/z/IE4AAOxy0x1TWdd9/$_57.JPG and play with home made rockers configuration
You can get copied versions, I've used the 2009 ACAD version for years (2D)
Paid about 10,000 Baht which was about 5 bucks Oz from memory.
Theres always someone going to Bali from Oz if you ever want us to grab you a copy.
Actually I can probably copy the one I've got if you wanted.
You can get a free mountain bike linkage design software that would prob sort it.

Looks good Red might use myself!
Couldn't find the "free" download, $10 is pretty cheap I guess for personal use.

thanks heaps Hagarr and Mohawk, i have a lot of progs on my puter but no time to study 'em, may be later lol
any one in the know of 2011-2013 GSXR 600/750s shock length?
There's a shock length sticky in one of the sections Surt. Technamickle section if I remember.
thanks Hagarr!
yup ive seen the table but it ends up with '04-'06 models like everywhere. but ive bought the above mentioned shock, pretty sure its longer than bandits and i'll be able to play with triangles anyway
figured out how to make the plenum securing mounts the best way and started their implementation
disassembled the shock further (and yup powder coated the spring) for paint job
then in a few days ive noticed that it'd leaked all the gas and half fliud out through the adjusting screw (the red arrow) wtf?!
anyone knows if i can part the remains at the spot pointed by the blue arrow?
any way the shocks gunna be used in my other project because ive got this
btw its 315mm eye to eye if some one likes to know
Fucking WOW! Off the dial mate!
Isnt it Si cant wait to see this thing turn wheels ...
Continuing to knock it out of the park Surt
I can handle pain until it hurts.
hat off to you mate thats awsome
Surt, that tank looks fucking amazing. What's the finish?
Fucking mint!
Usual Surt handywork! i'm really looking forward to see this finished, Kudos for keeping up the pace you really have a lot of skill and patience.
Great stuff as usual!
thanks lots brothers, your compliments urge me ride on headlong
thats an acryl primer, now its become obvious that one colour scheme is no go, it needs aerography without fail. so let it stay as is until the bike is up and running and i've saved a coupla quids to pay for aerography, or i may try doing/learning it myself
here's like rites of shamanism usually go, have fan mates

I'm lost for words on that video. It's got everything.
I couldn't get this out of my mind the whole way through:
Rock n roll.
