Street Bike Lowering Links
DSCBIKESHOP carry all your needs to lower your bike from a 1"-2"-3"-4"-5"drop. All our links can be used on motorcycles for customizing, racing and your daily grind on the streets. Most other makers of lowering links use 6061 T-6 aluminum and have proven to crack or break, for that reason. We CNC from 7075 T-6 Billet aluminum. This type of aluminum is the strongest available on the market today, providing the greatest amount of safety and protection for the rider. We carry a large selection of links from a solid (dog bone) link or a fully adjustable (turnbuckle) style lowering link that replaces your OEM links to allow you to slam your steetbike to your desired riding height.
You can choose from finishes as polished, chrome, anodized black and gun metal finish.
Don't forget those Fairing Bolts to give you that one off custom look.
We also have you covered in OEM replacement stators, rectifiers, head gaskets, replacement clutch fibers and springs, steering stem bearings, front and rear wheel bearings, and stock swingarm bearings and more alike.
How To Install Lowering Links:
You can lower the rear with lowering links.
You can lower the front by raising the forks in the lower and upper triple clamps.
Both of these methods are completely safe. The new dog bones (lowering links) are designed so the rear of the bike rests in a lower position by relocation mounting points etc. By raising the forks in the triple clamps you are lowering the front of the bike without effecting suspension travel because the fork travel is on the bottom of the fork.
Raising the forks is fairly simple requiring front and rear stands and them simply loosening the necessary bolts on the upper and lower triple clamps, clip-ons, and anything else necessary. I always put my floor jack under the front tire to keep pressure on it then I can rely on the hydraulic jack to assist in adjusting the fork tube height in the triple clamp if it is more distance than I can do with the slack in the forks.
Installing the lowering links is a bit trickier as you have to release just enough tension off of the rear suspension to be able to remove the stock links and install the new ones. It's just a matter of balance and mostly takes patience!
