does anyone know how much a stock steel 01 swingarm weigh's , can't get the archeives to work, my new janssen +1 is 20 lbs , wondering if i'm saving, or adding, by the way anyone know where you can get ti bolt's cheap, seem's like they went up since i last bought any but what hasn't, p.s. one of us has to lose some weight, and it is much easier to keep it off the bike!

 

About 25 for a stock steel arm, and my +4 ODP was about 12Lbs. I saw that arm, and almost bid on it, but to be honest that is heavier than I would want to run.

My new +2 KidsNQuads arm is around 10Lbs with skid mounts and gusseted for duning.

 

I've been running a stock swingarm on my 04 since I bought it and it's ridiculously short. I'd like to go to a 6 over if I could find a good deal on one.

 

Brian i still have my stock steel swingarm in the garage from when i converted to the new style alluminum one, i'll wiegh it tonight and let you know.

 

it feel's about 5 pounds lighter . which is good enough, i mainly wanted +1 , i need to be able to lift the front when needed, makes it easier to cross over downed tree's, ect. but with stock the front end is starting to feel light, when wot . perfect for me is when i lean back she wheelies, lean forward stay's planted and steers well. i was a weak away from a big draw and was going to buy the lonestar +1 on ebay. which i doubt is much lighter. but the janssen was half
the price , and comes with a lifetime replacement. besides this goes into the catergory of [ if it don't make it faster i'm not sure i need it ]
12 lbs is that alum? that mean's you have to cary the beer. lol

 

my +4 weighs 8lbs.

 

8 lbs . that is light. soon as i get around to it , i have a ds 450 lonestar axel i want to run on my 650 , hub's, brake, ect, should all be lighter . i'm hoping the sprocket hub is the same as honda . might be able to get a 530,

 

I think it will make a real good trail arm, I found that my +4 was a little too long for dirt. But stock was too short for sand.... so I'm going +2! Its either be a good combo or suck at both LOL.

It is CroMo steel with non-stock skid.

 

do you run stock suspension, what year?

 

hay mckay just curious did you use your old axel with the new swingarm
