is there a lowering link for hypers?

who makes ride height lowering link for hypers? the only link i see is the ones that come on the "s" model, and i don't even know if that can be lowered. there are a lot of lowering links for 748, 848, 916 etc. on ebay, but do any of them fit the hyper?

the s model part you are referring to is not a lowering link ... it is the ride height adjustment rod. the base model has a solid cast rod, no adjustment possible.

the s model ride height adjustment rod will not provide any lowering past what the base model fixed height rod provides.

am not sure if anyone makes a true lowering link kit for the hyper/multistrada ... have done searches and not found anything yet.

also keep in mind, that if you do lower the rear suspension on your hyper, you will also need to lower the front (raise the fork legs in the triple clamps), and then figure out how much you need to alter the side stand to compensate for the lowered height of the frame/bike.

best of luck.
