DescriptionThe whole story▼
Engineered specifically for the Suzuki GSX-R 600/750 from 2011 to 2017, the Forsaken Motorsport linear linkage converts the stock progressive suspension rate into a more linear response — delivering measurably better traction, more consistent feedback, and more efficient power transfer through every corner. For riders who demand precision, this is a direct upgrade that transforms rear suspension character without replacing the shock.
Key Features
- Converts the factory progressive suspension rate to a linear curve, improving traction and rear-end feedback across the entire travel range.
- 35% stiffer than the original linkage, significantly reducing flex and deflection under hard cornering and braking loads.
- CNC-machined in-house by Forsaken Motorsport in Canada using a Haas VM3 milling machine, from solid billet aluminium — no casting porosity, no compromise.
- Compatible with the stock spring, yet fully adaptable to alternative spring rates to suit individual rider preference and track conditions.
- Valve timing can be adjusted to optimise damper behaviour for the flatter progressive rate introduced by this linkage.
- Supplied with new bearings for a clean installation; original bolts, sleeves and seals are reused, keeping the fitting process straightforward.
Performance & Build Quality
The Forsaken Motorsport approach centres on precision over compromise. By machining every piece from a solid aluminium billet on a Haas VM3 — entirely in-house at their Canadian facility — tolerances are held to levels that casting simply cannot achieve. The result is a linkage that is 35% stiffer than the OEM component, eliminating the subtle but performance-sapping flex that accumulates under repeated hard use.
The shift from a progressive to a linear suspension rate gives the rider a more predictable, consistent feel throughout the stroke. This translates directly into improved corner entry confidence, better mid-corner traction, and a rear end that communicates clearly rather than building resistance unpredictably. The included new bearing set ensures the kit arrives ready to install with zero compromised components.
Road & Track Use
This linkage is designed for solo riding only. It is not suitable for pillion use — please observe this requirement for safe and correct operation. Whether used on track days or spirited road riding, the linear rate characteristic suits riders who have moved beyond the factory suspension map and want a more direct connection between input and response.
Fitment & Compatibility
This linear linkage is designed exclusively for the following models:
- Suzuki GSX-R 600 (2011–2017)
- Suzuki GSX-R 750 (2011–2017)
Original bolts, sleeves and seals are reused during installation. New bearings are included in the kit.
