  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Linkage Ratio

Someone has to know this!? My question I think may have been worded incorrectly but what I am looking for is the ratio of the rear shock linkage IE 3:1 etc.
 
measure the exposed part of the shaft on the shock when on a stand, add about 1/4-1/2 inch for the bumper to compress and divide the overall travel by this amount. Should be close.
 
Thanks Motosport! I should have dealt with this prior to ripping it all apart but alas it is completely torn down to the frame (bare). I guess I might have to put it back together to figure this out. The reason I am asking is that I need to make a lowering spacer. Thanks again for the reply!
 
The linkage ratio is 3.275 to 1. The shock is all lowered, and now I am heading on to the front shocks!
