Are the Chinese sent threaded hex adj lowering links safe???
I recently put an 04-06 R1 shock and adaptor in my 06 and on centre stand rear tyre was touching ground and it is turning in way too easily for my liking, so I installed the adj lowering link and set it to 224mm from stock 216mm. This is the maximum allowable to avoid bottom of shock hitting the link. This has lowered the rear considerably so I raised the forks 5mm. Not test ridden yet as poor weather but I’m optimistic about a good riding result.
So, are these adj links safe? Has anyone had or heard of any failing?
Any advice very welcome!!
