What is the best way to go?? Last year i saw a lot of raptors running wheelie bars and few run longer swing arms. This year the trend seems to be those with the wheelie bars have gone to longer swing arms. I went longer swingarm and really like it. I have improved my times by more than i had imagined i would. I tried a wheely bar but did not like the feel and thoughtit was acually hurting my time a bit. What do you think?? I was funny for a while, pull up to the dragstrip with 6 rappys and being the only one with out a wheelie bar. Looked like a mad max movie. I went with 4 1/2 inches on my swing arm and like it. I thought 2 was to short and 6 was to hard to hook up on the flat drag strip.
