Raising Links for the XT660R.
Been shown some but they were 99 euros, nearly a hundred quid for crying out loud
Anyway, need to raise my XT up a bit if i'm going to keep it. Its to low for what i want it for and as im 6 foot 6 aswell its my first job to sort on the bike. Anyone know where i can get some that aint gonna cost a fortune? Any help would be appreciated.

I run XTR links on my XTX, by using X links on your R it will raise your R by 2.5cmm John. You will have to match the front by raising the forks 2.5cm, this can be done with my spacers fitted into the front forks. It will effect the handing, the higher the center of gravity the worse the handling for fast cornering, but far better for off road riding with greater ground clearance. That's why I have lowered my XTX, lower center of gravity better corner speed.

I've changed to X shock and links and fork spacers (28mm)
Didn't realy like it, too wobbly in city traffic ,as Kev allready explained Changed back to the R links and left the X shock and fork spacers in. Perfect set-up for me now.
