Yes the 5/8" shorter swing arm makes the front end feel lighter. I had no problems getting the front up for wheelies or rough stuff.

The rear hub bolt pattern is the same as Honda.

I dont understand. Polaris goes out, does R&D and figures the best way to get a bike to handle and make the best times is to get the suspension to not squat and not wheelie coming out of corner and such. Put the power to the ground! GREAT...so then everyone rags on the bike cause "it doesnt wheelie as easy as some bikes" so what does polaris do, they shorten the swingarm to allow the bike to wheelie better. Damn...people need to figure out what they want! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
