[atomic]

hey guys another dumb question i want my bike to have more of an agressive stance at the rear its sitting way to low and want to raise it what's the best way to do this

Thought about riser links for the rear shock? Dropin ur forks through the clamps a couple of mm?

what bike is it on? you can get shorter dog bones(linkages) or adjustable ones.

[scotty mac]

do a search on "dog bones" should find stacks of info. here are some adjusatble ones. http://www.streetfighters.com.au/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=9978&SearchTerms=dog,bones

Also the 2000 ZX9's have a ride height adjuster on the top shock mount as a stock fitting. Should be interchangeable for the ZX6.

You don't have to make any mechanical adjustments at all if it is only the look you are after, just get a german style tail that bends up at the back.

Yeh thats a good point! If ur gonna do something radical like a german style tail u may not need to worry bout it coz doin all that will change the geometry & therefore the handling of the bike, so dont go too nuts!

[Darn]

agree with the handling issue, if you can find a way to make your subframe adjustable, then you need not touch your suspension settings at all. I ended up building a whole new sub which is adjustable via tunbuckles under the seat.
good luck.
