Dumb question - Linkage bearings...

Bearings in bad conditions (lack of lubrification and filled of dirt !!!), can make a HUGE difference concerning suspension performance ?

Well all your sag settings etc. are going to get messed up if the bearings are not performing correctly, so guess YES is the answer. Also when the bearings seize completely, as they surely will with dirt as lubrication, the suspenion will be non existent!

Thanks Zenith.
Concerning the sag settings I can read the same measure 100 mm, I decided to clean the bearing and grease them because the rear did not react as I have setup it.(and a little noise coming from linkage when grab my rear fender up with my hands)
I have made some adjustment during the last winter so I think with them greased and cleaned I will have a surprise next Sunday morning!!!! Well I am going riding with some tools in my bag...Screwdriver !!!!
Have a nice day.
