Default Raising the Rear!

Just wondering if any of you know if there is a way to raise the rear up on these bikes?

I know you can get jack-up kits for some bikes,or shorter suspension linkages for lowering but
i've seen nowt for the CBR1000F....

Cheers,cbr_lover(rob)

Default RE: Raising the Rear!

Hi Rob,

I`m going through the same thing myself at the moment.

1:Use a zx12 or zx9(Ninja).They are approx 20mm longer!!

2:Take your linkages to a machine shop and get them to turn the bolt into an eccentric adjuster and make the holes longer,when you turn this around it will effectively shorten the linkages raising the rear!!This carries the added benefits of being able to return it to the original ride height should you so wish!!

I hope this helps.

Simon.
