Default Extended swingarm wheelies

I know that getting an extended swingarm will keep ypur front from popping up more. But will it cause it to ride totally dif. while in a wheelie. Like with the whole balancing point and what not. I can ride some really good wheelies but I have found some sweet swingarms for some decebt prices. I know I could still get the front end up with a +2 but is it really worth it. Will it benefit me in handling through the trails

What there made for is to keep the front end down, yes your balance point will change too. I wouldn't get one unless you have problems with your front end coming up when you don't want it to

I agree. If you are not having a problem with the front-end coming up, why are you thinking about getting one?

I would think that for trails, you would want to stick with the stock length swingarm anyway.
