Yes, this is another lowering question. When I look at the two side by side as in the picture below, they look nearly identical in length.
yamalink vs stock linkage
This isn't my picture, but when I lined them up on my workbench that's what I saw. My question is this: Does it really make that much of a difference?
Here's why I ask. I did install the Yamalink, but I also did the lowering of the shock too. I did not get a 1.5" or 2" difference by doing both. What I got was almost exactly 1 inch. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm happy with the difference, but what I'm wondering is, did I really gain anything from the Yamalink other than a nice zerk fitting to lube the bearings? What am I missing?
