Need your fellas advice on this. What would be a decent price for a shock linkage and dogbone off e-bay. Want to puchase a dogbone to lower the rear end so I don't have to hack up mine, was thinking of taking to a welding/machine shop to shorten. Suggestions on how low. Think I'm goin' with Maxxis razr m932 20x11x10 tires (or kenda speed racers 18x10x10), I only weigh 125-130# and can lower the forks 2-2 1/2" in front. This Tecate sits high. So 2" on the dog bone? And I think I'm getting the dogbone and spare linkage for $21.00 shipped. Want to make sure I'm doin' this right.
$21 shipped sounds pretty good. I'm not sure if 2" removed out of the dogbone would equal to 2" lowered in the rear though. I'm not sure how that would work.
Thanx dcreel, I'll get a measurment how is, take out the dogbone & lower it to where I want & mark the mock dogbone.
That would probably be the best way to do it. Post some pics when you are done.
This Tecate is nearly done. Sanded and worked on the rear fender for nearly 4 hrs. last night, the same with the exaust today, goin' out to hook up the electrical, and now that I am nearly finished, I got my manual today, this trike is self explanatory, like the design and engineering way better than thse 200x's. I can have this runnin' tomarrow, but won't have the new tires and new chain till late next week. Also should get some carb dip, but they wanted $20, not gonna happen.
