Default Stock rear dogbone link length?

As mentioned in another post my bike I just bought was lowered. It has a piece of square steel in place of the stock rear link. I measured the length of it, center of bolt to center of bolt and its 4". Out of curiousity whats the stock length center to center?

well, the front was lowered, I figured the rear was too. Especially considering its just a piece of square tube in there.

Maybe he had a lowering link in there, lost the stock dogbone and decided to pull the rear back to stock.

Dunno, but thanks for checking. At least now I know the rear is at the proper height

I take it you won't need the stock link after all since yours is the same...So your bike should be up to stock height now...How's it feel?

not sure, I figure I'll probably get a stock one anyway, since it has bushings and such, where this is just steel on steel.

Feels good, havent done much riding on it yet though. Waiting for plates to show up
