I went with the linkage plates to see how it modified the way the suspension works. Being a 'techie', I like the ability to be able to compare different setups. With rider sag set at 75mm in the rear and the front and rear working relatively evenly now, today is test day over a range of natural conditions vs the indoor stlye of terrain I have been riding here. We had 2" or better of snow last week so it has made it hard to get out regularly on the bike to test setups.
It also seems that with a reasonable range of adjustments available on the bike the factory was looking to able to allow riders to get it right for them and the terrain. Even mountain bikes with a much more limited range of adjustments benefit greatly from a good setup.
The bike is damn cool to ride, though!
Why fit the Jitsie linkage plates? The 4rt must have the most plush suspension ever on Trials bike, why alter what Honda spent $$$$$$ developing? Change the footpegs & hangers by all means though, why they have to fit the rubbish they do on a
