this is the schematic of the factory linkage. if memory serves correct yo can replicate this peice and make the arms 1 inch longer for a 2 inch drop. 1/2 in per inch. that was the ratio on the 954. my friend made adjustsable links with thraded rod (tempered grade 8 or stronger)turnbuckles, and hind (sp) joints. useing stainless steel. it was cheaper than buying links. i will also try to cross reference the p/n for the factory dogbone against other year/ models for a match. maybe that year/model has a lower link offered.

i have a lowering link for an 03 600 rr that looks simalar to this. it is a 2 position link 1or 2 in lower i think. it mesures 7 inches and 7 1/2 inches center of hole to center of hole long ways. and 4 1/4 inches wide. outside to out. 3 3/8 inside.........with the peice in front of me it would be very easy for me to make a replica.i could make one for the 600in no time. minus the bushings of course.
