Lowering Links
At RPM Moto we understand that more riders want to feel grounded, balanced and secure, so our lowering links range delivers smart geometry adjustments, precise engineering and make-your-ride-fit-you solutions. Whether you’re shortening the seat height for better foot-reach, customizing your build or improving ergonomics for everyday use, our lowering link kits help you achieve it without compromising quality.
Why Choose RPM Moto Lowering Links
-
Better fit for your height & confidence: Worn stock stance leaving you stretched? Our lowering links reduce seat height and make flat-footing easier, especially ideal for shorter riders or urban stop-and-go.
-
Precision-engineered for your machine: These links are designed to work with your model’s suspension linkage geometry, replacing the stock link arm to lower the rear whilst retaining as much suspension travel as practical.
-
Quality materials for the long haul: We source kits from trusted brands offering robust engineering, durable bushings and accurate fitment so you don’t compromise reliability while lowering.
-
Tailored for correct fit & easy upgrade path: Whether you ride a sport-bike, adventure machine, commuter or custom build, we carry compatible lowering link kits and help you pick the right drop/length for your model.
-
Australia-wide dispatch & select international shipping available: Order online from RPM Moto, and we’ll get your lowering link kit delivered across Australia.
-
Select international shipping available: RPM Moto proudly offers limited worldwide delivery on select parts and kits so riders beyond Australia can access genuine, high-quality motorcycle components with confidence.
What You’ll Find in Our Lowering Link Kit Range
-
Standard lowering link kits: Drop-in replacements for common models where you simply swap the original link for the lowered version.
-
Adjustable / variable-drop lowering links: Kits that allow you to choose how much you want to lower (e.g., 20 mm, 30 mm) so you maintain control over ride height vs clearance.
-
Brand-specific precision links: For riders who demand exact fitment on high-end machines or custom builds.
-
Value & budget lowering link options: Quality options that achieve the drop you need without massive cost.
-
Heavy-duty or bespoke links for custom/modified machines: For riders modifying the frame, suspension or build height and needing stronger or non-standard links.
When It’s Time to Upgrade to Lowering Links
-
You’re unable to flat-foot or your boots don’t fully reach the ground when stopped, reducing confidence.
-
You’ve modified your bike (suspension, wheels, frame) and the standard stance feels off or too tall.
-
You’re building a custom ride and need your ergonomics to match your height, style or comfort preference.
-
You ride in urban/commuter environments requiring frequent stops, and a lower seat height improves safety and ease of use.
-
You want to enhance your bike’s stance, make it easier to handle at low speeds and ensure it fits you rather than forcing you to fit it.
Important Fit & Performance Considerations
-
Lowering via links changes suspension geometry: the shock mount position, leverage ratio and travel may be affected.
-
Reduced ground clearance: Lowering height means less clearance for off-road, aggressive riding or when leaning (important for sport or dual-sport riders).
-
Proper fitment and torque: It’s critical to install correctly (or with a qualified technician) to ensure safety, bearing alignment and avoid unexpected issues.
-
Match with your suspension setup: After lowering, re-check sag, preload and possibly front/rear balance so geometry flows correctly with your riding style and settings.
