CR500 linkage and stock frame

[troybilt]

Subscribed.  I'm with Troy on the YFZ450-R linkage.  Or a CRF450 Linkage.  I'd like to see your drawings also troy comparing the linkages

yea I've been a little reluctant to post until I'm sure I know what I have.  I have a Laeger YZ hybrid which I was told all Laeger hybrids either used stock linkage, no-link or CR500 linkage, but this appears to be a YZ linkage (dirtbike) and PEP YZ rear shock.  So I'm not 100% sure, also the stock 450r linkage I found in a box of parts so I'm not sure if its 04-05 or the newer one.  I'll sort that out and show you.

This is something I'd be interested in hearing about.  I've got an 88 frame, 05 450r swingarm and linkage and will be running 250r carrier and axle.  This build will be for my wife but I'd like to experience a more plush rear suspension.

I've got an Elka Stage 3 rear on my 86 and I think it could use a little more plush feel here and there.  Like Hawaii said, I'm for modding my stock 88 frame.  Not so much on the 86 at this point.

Oh toodles its time to get to it show us the moseketools to help us do it.

We got a shock, swingarm, linkage, and the mystery mouseketool!!!

I wish I had a dollar for everytime I've heard that in the last couple years....

Does this require a custom built shock?  Or just a cr500 one. What would the length be

I'm with y'all on Mickey Mouse's Playhouse.  I sometimes get caught in a trance watching it! ..... Don't judge me

It requires a custom shock. somewhere in the neighborhood of 18 inches
