Yes, yes, I ordered dogbones from the place everyone suggests, but didn't receive any time of confirmation or anything for over 2 weeks. So, needless to say, I disputed my payment and got my money back. I hated it, but I don't just want my money out there with no clue about the status of my order.

So the. I started looking for links from other stock machines. The first I tried was an SV650 (05 I believe). 145mm to our 165. I absolutely loved how high it looked, but there was contact between the shock and the swing arm. More searching, and I found an EX500 dogbone measures to be about 155mm stock!
Slapped it on my bike, and the ride height is perfect after the shock conversion!

Just thought I'd let you all know! This may have been on here before, but the only feedback I ever got was go with the online store for them.

Hope this helps ninjette owners that were late to the game in purchasing their first!
I have an EX500 dogbone that I got with a shock on eBay. I'll never use it so if you're doing the same modification PM me.
