According to this topic;

viewtopic.php?f=122&t=10063

Suspension linkages are interchangeable, is this the case with no need for any other mods? Just bolt in between h1,h2 and L models? Also what are the charecteristics of the different linkages? I'm still fiddling with my rear suspension due to my small size so would a h2 linkage help stop the bike chucking me out of the seat on normal bumps? I know its been discussed in that topic I just want clarification, thanks

ive just bought a H model linkage (because of the grease nipples), ill see how it compares in a few days...im fairly sure you can swap them, the geometry might change slightly though?

Im sure they are interchangeable but they have a different rate so it will change how it all feels.

yeah im looking for a slightly softer rear end, i managed to finally undo the preload lockring, wound it off a few turns and was scraping the exhaust and footrests with my mate on the back so maybe a little bit soft
