anyone raised arse on SRAD?

[LUXY DJ]

iv already dropped the front but i want the arse UP! so is it just a case of washer under the shock? me & mate looked to see if we could raise the sub-frame but you cant(unless you modded the frame)

so,anyone done it or know?

Mines got washer bunged ontop of the rear shock, it leans quite a bit on the sidestand

I was looking at those jack up extensions on ebay last night for the FZR. Not sure what the ride would be like though as it just an extended shock support

Everybike has different ways of 'jacking up' some are shortened dog bones, some are washers/spacers under the shock etc. Either way it'll raise the rear end causing the bike to dip into corners to quickly, becareful though, if you have dropped the front and raise the rear it could get a tad shakey and unstable. Could be dangerous, try it one step at a time.

Careful to to go too high. Mines so high that when i stop i have to slide right to the front of the seat and even then i can only get my toes down.

i tightend up the rear shock on my srad so it doesnt sink as much when i sit on it seems to wheelie a bit better as well but it could be all in my head

cheers peeps

SO..... which way do i go about raising it? washer or dogbone?

OR BOTH



i love the feel with the front dropped & i wanna do rear MAINLY for looks but if it helps in cornering then all the better, if i dont like it ill just re set it to std

V4/leon yours look nice but id prob want a LITTLE bit more hieght so have you got the washer size of what you put under the shock? & ill maybe make it a mil or 2 thicker

The washer was there when i bought it, its only about 4 or 5 mm thick so its not a big difference, you cant go much bigger though you'll run out of thread on the top of the shock, mines quite close as it is.

Beware the sidestand too, mine leans like a bastard

I wouldn't go too high though, ive seen srads jacked right up, not a pretty sight

Looks Like a whale with its mouth open

if you only want it for looks then i'd go with adjusting your subframe mate.

get a bracket made up for where the lower part of the subframe joins onto your frame, extending this part will raise the rear.

i'll make a pic later to demonstrate

k cheers mate

me & mate checked the sub-frame & it moved about an inch cause theres abit of the sub frame on the 2 top bars that stop it going any further so it would need a TINY bit cut away BUT THEN....theres the exhaust,& it dont look like that would go up with the sub-frame far enough

heres a rough chop mate, cut you can see where you'd have to make the brackets up for.

hope it helps

Looks odd. Just stick the dogbones on there. It's less pissing around than modding the subframe.

[LUXY DJ]

thats abit too high i think

also theres another two bars under the panels which wont let it spin upwards when loose(iv tried)

also id like to see it abit lower BUT with a undertray on there

Leave it as is.

Or if you want to improve it, fit a K1 rear send to the Srad, the srad rear end is imho

I'd love a 750 Gixxer (but need to get more experience and some NCB behind me first), but TBH never really caught on with the looks of the SRAD.

I think the raised rear end looks good, as long as it's not too extreme
