Would you measure your OEM rear set connecting rod?

[cb100cafe]

I'm really not a big fan of putting aftermarket parts on the bikes i'm building if I don't have to do it. Typically it ends up harder to figure things out in the long run but i build a nice supply of parts to interchange and play around with and usually then that helps later down the road.

I'm putting honda CBR929 rear sets on a bike i'm building and need a longer connecting rod between the rod ends.

Any chance if anyone of you are out there and have a metric ruler and OEM factory rear sets on your bikes would you measure the shift linkage connecting rod length and post it up?

For example: #11 in the photo

CBR900rr (2001) 185mm 6mm female threads (RH/LH) with 1.0mm pitch.

I suspect i'm going to need a rod length of 225mm-235mm but i'm not sure yet until i finalize a few things. Doesn't matter if the rod is female or male threaded but 6mm and 1.0mm would be necessary because i'm going to use stainless rod ends.

Cheers to you if you post up.

P.S. i know about fast from the past rear set parts already but curious for future reference too?

This is exactly what BradJ meant when he posted.
Until you have your rearsets mounted in their final position, you will have no idea how long the rod will need to be. The "usual" order of events is:
Mount rear sets
Modify and or mount new shift lever.
Measure rod length.

Sounds like you are doing things in reverse.
