Can you lower a YZ125 2014 with a YamaLink 1.5" and a YZ Race link?
Question of the day....
To whom it may concern: I want to lower my bike as well as continue to be as aggressive as I can(still a beginner). Can you use the regular lowering link with the race link to lower and maintain traction? Please let me know.
Our reply: No, the YamaLink 1.5" (aka the regular lowering link) does not work with the Race YZ lowering link. Just one or the other with the Yamaha's stock components.
Help with 2006 WR250F spring rate with YamaLink and 205 pound rider
Caller from California asking about spring rates, sag and maybe installing a YamaLink. Weight without gear is 205 pounds. Stock spring rate is 5.1kg. At the caller/rider's weight he needs a 5.5 kg BEFORE a YamaLink to achieve approximately 100mm sag. And with a YamaLink the rider needs a 6.0 kg spring for his 2006 WR250F lowering needs.

What spring for 200 pound WR450F rider with YamaLink?
Good phone conversation with a 2008 WR450F YamaLink customer. He weighs 200 pounds withOUT gear. The stock spring for the 08 WR450 is a 5.8kg. At his weight - before a YamaLink - he needs a 5.8kg. And with a YamaLink he needs a 6.2 kg spring in order to achieve proper sag range and balanced handling. Without proper sag and spring rate the Yamaha will bottom, understeer, ride harshly on the small bumps and feel like a chopper. That is why our website and instructions emphasize resetting sag AND being properly resprung for rider weight plus the YamaLink.
