kevin j Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 the MX and off road yams of that era had production monoshock as you show. Didn't have the dogbone aneprogressive linkages, so the only great advnatages were cooler, longer stroke, and better shocks. Also more rigid swing arm in torsion (side to side twist of wheel). my Bro in law raced for years,at a pretty highlevel, said the ride was better but the weight being up higher under the tank was noticeable to him. I think the introduction fo progressive linkage made the old monshock obsolete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
