Just wanted a little feedback on extending the stock swingarm as to how many inches and how's it holding up or if it's all together a bad idea and I should just look into replacing it with an aftermarket one.

I'm running a 4.5" JTM extension on mine. For general trail and dune riding I think a +2 would be better. Even with my 727's extra ponies, it is harder to pull the front end up now then when it was piped only with the stock length.

I have a +2 that a friend made for me and like it alot. I had it powder coated and it looks sweet and you can't really tell it extended.. Im not a drag racer more of a hill shooter trail rider but drag once in a while and it seems great for all those. I have not had it very long but the other one that was made held up to alot of abuse!!!!!!

Pat when you say "other one" was it also a 2" or more? let me give you an idea of my riding style I dont really like to tight trail ride so I dont do it too othen but I do like to hit jumps at the track and drag race.

Yes it was a +2 and he has beat it up pretty good. Jumping also but anything more then a +2 will hurt you at the track but help you everywhere else!

Sure no problem I think you will like it. If I was just a drag racer I might run that +4 extension but I don't and the +2 is perfect for me and my riding style
