Lower Rear Suspension 2010 FE-450 ?

Muddy · Oct 22, 2012

Is there a bushing or a kit available to lower the rear suspension on a 2010 FE-450 ?
Thought I saw a post about this somewhere. If I could lower my bike approx 1'' or so
It would be great...... :cheers:

Modifying the shock is the only way I know on a bike like this that doesn't have a linked suspension. Talk to Rick, he did mine...

The X-Bushing from http://www.synergyseals.com provides a convenient way to lower the rear by 3/4".

I have the X-bushing. it is poorly made but it'll do the job.

Thanks for the info, I knew Taffy would have a thought.......

buy it with the grease nipple option and also go straight to an engineer and ask them to machine the plastic block to accomodate two oil seals at the ends. if drilling to put a pinch bolt in: don't do it anywhere except right around the back against the mudflap as the screw will be knocked off by the shock on a G-out at anything but the back position.

If buying one for the bottom I would also consider one for the top joint if they do one.
