V strom 1000 k8 suspension links
« on: August 30, 2017, 00:41:21 »
Hello chaps my new to me DL1000 got delivered today so I met up with my mate and his k7. My bike doesn’t seem as tall at the rear as his.. does anyone know the length of the standard suspension link plates so I can determine wether it has been lowered?

140 mm between hole centers.
Pat- 2007 DL650A was ridden to all 48 contiguous states. 2012 DL650A outlasted me.
