For those that have mono shocked their bikes can you please post pics here. I want to get a thread of just monoshocked bikes becuase we have so many projects that its becoming too hard to find what you need.

How about some pics of the shock and how its mounted? Also any specifics you can include about your build. It would be great if we had this kind of section then it would be easier to sift through what worked and how it worked.

There's about 50 pages of pictures of my build along with all the instructions on how I did it here:http://kzrider.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=116&func=view&catid=11&id=340793

The swingarm mounting stuff starts on page 2. If you want me to filter out the pertinant stuff and link it to this thread, I can, but that will have to wait. I don't have that kind of time at work.

Wow, I can't believe I never took a picture of my bike mocked up with the complete rear suspension! The best I have is the swingarm installed, but without the shock and linkage

And the best pic I have of the rear suspension assembled was when I was setting up the rear suspension geometry prior to tack welding my mounting brackets
