AltRider Variable Height Suspension Linkage for Honda CRF1000L and CRF1100L Africa Twin/ ADV Sports
 

Confirmed to fit on the 2024 models. 

✓ 4 Height Options: Lower your seat by 12mm (0.4 in) or 25mm (1 in) for technical terrain, or raise it by 6mm (0.24 in) or 19mm (0.75 in) for aggressive riding.

✓ Built-In UHMW Link Guard: We're the only ones with an integrated 6mm UHMW linkage guard. Unlike rigid guards, it's lubricious so you will glide over obstacles and boulders and flexes on impact insuring you will not damage the bearing on your rear shock. Go take a look under your bike and see why we build this protection.

 ✓ Improved Comfort & Confidence: Lowering your suspension makes it easier to plant both feet on the ground, especially on uneven terrain or for shorter riders.

✓ OEM-Grade Bearings: Full needle Japanese bearings with integrated seals. Because cheap bearings are fine until they're not. Go do your Research.

✓ Hassle Proof Adjustment: Height settings are laser-etched right on the inserts. Two holes per insert, and two ways to mount - impossible to mess up.

Your Africa Twin is a beast, but its stock height can be intimidating. Don't let that keep you from fully exploring your bike’s potential. Use this variable height suspension linkage as your training aid and expand your riding techniques.

Detailed Description

We know that one height doesn't work for all terrain and all skill levels. Technical sections demand confidence (low seat height) and high-speed runs need clearance (lifted suspension). Our variable suspension links solve both. Precision CNC'd from aircraft-grade billet aluminum, these aren't just shorter links - they're a complete height management system. 

The AltRider Variable Height Suspension Linkage lets you customize your suspension to achieve the perfect seat height for your Honda CRF1000L or CRF1100L Africa Twin / ADV Sports. Each billet insert side has two different holes and can be rotated two different ways, allowing for four different height settings

well this was money well spent, and the product is so well made, i have been using my Altrider lowering link for a few months and it does what it says on the tin, i looked at the video on how to fit the lowering kit for my CFR1000l, and in no time at all it was fitted. i even made an adjustment when out on the road, with help from my friend, i did not have to lower the front end of my Honda, as i had reduced the wheel from a 21inch to a 19inch. i had seen other products to lower the back end, but the build quality was very nothing like the Altrider. but i do suggest you keep a little chart on you for the increments. weather going up or down, well worth the investment, but i also purchased the adjustable side stand,
