I used the one for the regular H2, pretty sure I stated this in one of the 3 or 4 other threads you've talked about lowering links in.

The bolts are a pain in the ass to get out which is why kiwikodi mentioned installing the bolts backwards during the install. That way if you decide to remove the links it's easier to do because the bolts won't hit the center stand bracket woke backing out.

The first time you go at them bolts holding the links you will most likely find that the bolts were fitted before the centre stand (if you have one) making it impossible to remove the bolts without first removing the centre stand. So really its right from the beginning. Just remember to reinstall them the opposite way round in case you want to take them off again.

I still have a set of links from Lust if anyone wants them!!!

Thank you gentlemen. Seems like Brocks and Lust Racing are not sure the '18 year links will fit any longer, as they say the part number on the '19 is different.

KiwiKodi,

If the CAT were not there, what'd you think about the lowering?
Possibly better without the cat, but I got the lower seat and have no issues now.
