Honda Bros swingarm linkage addition CBR600F4 owners help please!

[bogan]

Decided to add a linkage system to the stock swingarm (which is single sided and linkless), hoping it'll be a low budget (<$200) but effective solution.

Got an 01 CBR600F4 shock and linkage today, adjustable comp and rebound :D now to work out how to fit it in there :scratch:

Looks like the top eyelet width is slightly too big to fit in the bros but that can be machined down easy enough, also looks like the battery will need to be relocated and its box removed.

However what I'm really after is someone with a CBR600F4 who is willing to take some measurements for me, so I can design a lower link mount and rocker to best replicate the cbr's suspension action.

Ignore title, anyone can help with this bit! So I now need to disassemble the shock so I can reroute the gas line. To unpressurized it I understand there is a cap on the base of the reservoir under which is the filler valve right? The only info I've found online so far is for a later model, but looks similar, anyhu, the guy reckons you drill a tiny hole over the valve, then push something in there to open the valve, pressure then builds and shoots the cap off the end; sounds fucking dodgy to me. Any helpful thoughts would be much appreciated. Also recommendations of people in palmy who could properly re-gas it for me.
