Hi Eric,
with the vertical distance between wheel axle and swingarm pivot (96mm) the swingarm angle should be 9.3°. The horizontal distance is 585mm measured and calculated. I controlled everything as good as possible on a smooth and horizontal concrete ground and found out the following:
vertical distances to the ground:
A:411 mm
G:569 mm
H:156 mm
C:315 mm
Horizontal distance from the swingarm pivot (A):
G:~60 mm
A: 585 mm
H:~14 mm
The shock length is 284mm (static sag 6mm), the free length of the shock is 290 mm.
Why does the calculator state a vertical distance of 153 mm between axle and swingarm pivot? This would need very long legs...
Have a nice day!
