I'm guessing that the lower tubes will be more flat once it's on the bike, so putting the adjustment there won't change the ride height as much as it would by putting it on the upper tubes.
Right on the money. the swingarm is at an 11 degree angle. I built the bottom tube to be horozontal, or very close, at ride height so the adjuster wont change anything. |

Thank you. Sadly he passed away unexpectedly 2 years ago to the day last sunday. I think about him every day. He was like a big brother to me. I should show some of his work, absolutly unbelievable. At the time of his death he was gearing up to cast his own cylinder heads for the 450 single ducatis to make them more competetive in racing. Different ports - valve angles etc.

Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

I'm no expert on suspension geometry, but that linkage on the swinger looks kinda f'ed up to me.
