I found it... Want me to put in with my 777 stuff..
I just installed the lowering link today. Thanks again HHR. tomorrow I will adjust the front forks so it levels out a little.

Glad it worked out.. As payment i may need to leverage you fabricating abilities.. I have a hard rack that is going on my xr and might need some help at some point..

I figure if you can make a gasket utta tin foil you can do anything..

My son and I are going to fabricate rear racks for our XRs also. we can make a third if you like. I have a tubing bender, welder, plasma cutters and such. I tried to put them in my KTM side bags but they wont fit for the trip. I am actually designing and building a single wheel trailer and hitch set-up for the 950.

Awesome, I actually have a fabricated rack that come with pelican cases that came from an xr off ADvrider. My issue is alway trying to figure out what another user did to make it work or if it really came from an xr... The cost of the rack bags and shipping was less than 150 which more or less paid for the bags, if the rack works or comes close it's a bonus. It's just getting everything to line up and work, and perhaps fabricating anything else required is where my skills are lacking, and where I could use your help...
