    Another FYI thing, the Zip-Ty racing Huskys were sporting a freshly CNC milled suspension link. That is all I can say, because engineering wise I have no info or idea what Ty is trying to accomplish with it,,pro-squat,,pro-rise,,smoother action,,higher in the rear, lower in the rear, better lever ratio, different ratio(yes of course)???.
    I do know that the speeds across the open Dez and trails that those guys fly and what they need can be quite a bit different than what most of us need or can use, but racing development usually breeds a better end product.

    sorry man, Ive seen the team and their bikes twice in the last month,,,,I am not a big carry the cam aroung guy,,,the next opportunity to shoot the link will be at the RynoLand W nat HS (if the zipty crew is there,I think yes they will), and at the latest the Nat H&H at Superstition.
    I may give a call and speak with xxxxxxx at ZipTy he is one of the team mechs and deals with machined parts like all the Yamaha billet stuff in the ZipTy Catalog. Ill try to glean some info. Without comparison its hard to tell what position its in,,but all the zipty machines are sporting a bright shiny with machining marks link.(heck they may even be different from each other???)
