how much shorter dog bones for.....

Post by boyoboy »

good day, eh.

looks like i will be raising the rear of my track only fzr400.

does anyone know the ratio of shortened dogbone to raised ride height? i.e. - how much do i need to shorten dogbones to get 3/4" - 1" raise in rear ride height?

thanks all.

Nevermind....

FZR400/600: To raise the tail about 1.5”-2” I go with a 5”(127mm) center on center. The Stock length is 5.8” center on center. A 1mm shorter bones will yield about 2.4mm raise on average.
