when you drop the forks Kev, how did you do it? Just losen the clamps and measure an inch from the top of the fork cap to the top yoke?

Pretty much yea.

Ive had a set of raiser links on my R now for about 6 months now (only used them before for off roading).

As for the seat peg position no this doesnt change but it does tilt your body forward slightly putting a bit more pressure on your wrists. I found this good as my rear shock was starting to sag a bit when fat me got on it!!!

As for the handleing ive noticed its not as stable at the higher speeds but still stable as a house at 80mph. On the slower speed stuff it likes to flick in and out of bends alot better which i found with the standard links it resisted alot and didnt want to turn once on a line. Saying that i could get the pegs down with the standard links on very easy so maybe im pushing the R too much, its so fun though:luuurve:

Only down side ive found at the moment is adjusting the chain is a ****** as when the swing arm sits so much lower you have to leave the chain slacker as once the suspensions compressed a bit the chain tightens up alot more than standard.

That as you dont use the chicken strips on the side of the tyres as much so your wearing the central part of the tyres alot more.

You got it, just remmember I also run progressive front fork springs, makes a big difference to the XTX's handling, add that to a lower center of gravity & it feels so much better for my style of ridding.

I have some links,, Now I dont know what their for... X or R..can someone give me a measurement fur the R an the X.. centre of hole to centre of hole..Please.....

X = 85mm
R = 90mm

hole to hole, center

So Joe,, theres not much in them 5mm.. they could fit on either a X or a R eh!!!!..a dont tink ye wid tell the difference.........as am gonna sell them..cheers fur that.JOhn

john, if they are off an X i may buy them off ya.

am gonna measure them later on,, an al let ye know

It may not sound that much, but the 85mm spacers lifted the back on my "R"
a couple of inches.

well I measured my links,,an am sure i bought them from JaseXT.. centre to centre an the are 70mm ?????????????????
