- How I lowered the rear suspension on my CF Moto 450MT/Ibex450. It is only a matter of removing 2 bolts and moving 1 bolt to a different location. Please watch what I do and learn what to do nd what NOT to do.
Please enjoy
Thank you for sharing. It's very useful!
Don't mind the comments, we are not all mechanics.
Good for you!
You're welcome mate. I agree I could have done things better. I was thinking this when doing the job and filming. I always say why pay someone to do a job that you can do yourself, then I wouldn't have been able to make this video. Plus it was removing 1 bolt right oh well 2 bolts in the end. How hard can that be?
I commend your resilience sir... good on you figuring it all out. fails and wins. great video. now subscribed
Thank you and thank you. I'm glad you like my video
Man some people should not have access to tools, this was sad to watch
It wasn't one of my best moments, I did make an easy job look hard
Sad but very funny. He did get lucky in the end. Lucky he cut out the bloopers!
I reckon with the bigger tyres and getting tall seat on mine. i may have to try this. Might be safer to use the scissor lift, but ill still tie bars to the roof because i had bikes fall over on me. Cheers mate.
Yes I need a scissor lift for sure. I should have used 2 straps I think to hold it up properly
OMG
Great Job. Thanks for sharing this DIY. BTW what's your height ?
I'm 168cm tall
Well, you got there in the end.
Yes I did. I made an easy job look very hard. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers Jim
Flat broke but lots of comedy gold! Looked like you had nearly more falls on the bike while working on it than riding it!
I wouldn't have thought the dog bones would have to come off to lower the link arm pivot? But, i dont have one yet🤦 When i get rhe tall seat & lower the bike that 20mm i wonder how this will pan out.
Cheers for showing the long way round!
I didn't think I'd have to remove the dog bone either but the bolt wouldn't come out. The dog bone need to be moved only about 3 or 4 mm. It was that close
@@FlatBrokeAdventures ahh, got it. The head of the bolt doesn't clear the dog bone profile? So at this stage, probably best to load the bike rather than lift the rear end?
As soon as mine comes in, that what I'll see. Cheers
You may need to lower the front also because lowering the back would have increased the trail slowing the steering.
Yes I was thinking bout lowering it about 10 - 15mm
This needs circus music....😵💫
@@andrewm190E hahaha you're probably right
Please delete this youtube video, if somebody watches your tutorial he is going to do something to himself, i would never in my life ride a bike after your "tutorial" you tighten the bolts so hard that they are going to explode when they get heat from the engine... USE A MECHANIC!!!!!
This is not a tutorial, I'm simply showing how I did mine. It's intended to show others what to do and what not to do by showing any issues that I come across.
Where do you get the side luggage brackets?

Here grab my beer, i'll do that for you.😊
Thanks mate. I did make it look a lot harder than it was
At this point, you’re the only one who made this video.. so what’s the easy way you mention?
If I'd just removed the 2 bolts at first it would have been easier. Instead of trying to only take out 1 bolt on the shock to get the job done. I could have also used another method to hold the bike up off the ground instead of using a ratchet strap to lift it.
@@FlatBrokeAdventures just got back from the dealer today.. they do it like in 5 minutes.. for free!.. *sigh* goodness save me a lot of bucks and time..
My oh my, you're lucky you didnt end up with a bike on your head.
That would have been bad
😂 I think it was better if you left it alone 😅
No it was to tall for me I was on tip toes when sitting on the bike. I get away with that on my road bike but I wont off road when I need a solid foot on the ground on uneven road
Hello how tall are you?? thank you 🤙🏽
I'm 168cm
@@FlatBrokeAdventuresis it good for my 177 cm?
@@AlexK-nf8cq Yes very good for you. You wont need to lower the suspension like I did
@@FlatBrokeAdventureswhat is the comfort and controllability of the engine considering that it is relatively heavy because with fluids it is close to 200 kg?
@@AlexK-nf8cq comfort is good. I did almost 300km last Thursday with no issues. The engine is good but is a little choppy when going from 0% throttle to a small % throttle. I believe you can adjust a lot of it out, which I haven't adjusted yet. Other than that I find it great
