Has anyone had any experience with their swingarm extensions? Good? Bad? Ugly?

 

RW660,
What kind of FMF pipe do you have? Full system or silencer only? What size main and pilot jets did you end up using?
Just wondered.
I've got the FMF power C 4sq silencer with a modified airbox (stock filter, not for long) and am using 150/155 mains and 27.5 pilots. Plug looks good where I'm at 650'.

 

i was curious where you found this extender for the raptor. i have heard of ones being made for other yamaha's but not the raptor. what is their web site so i can check them out and see what kind of product they are producing.

01 Raptor
88 tecate 4 (gone)
96 warrior
85 LT250R

 

I just had the silencer. I wanted the pipe but they kept jacking me around so I took their pipe off sent it back. I ordered a complete system from CT Racing. Pro Flo Design sytem made the biggest difference. I can tell that I need to change the jetting but I am going to wait until the other system comes.

I noticed that that company didn't show a Raptor, only Banshee, Warrior and Blaster. I think they have totally different swingarms.

 

I called them and they said they are working on it. Should be out in a couple months.

Will it work as well as a $500 new swingarm?

 

I emailed them as well and here is what they said
We are currently working on a 5" extension. Hope to be testing it this
weekend.
To extend the hub back less than 5" would require cutting the extrusion on
the stock swingarm.
This is an option we are exploring, but it would get more costly - you would
have to machine an opening thru the rear. - would you consider this option?
(provided you saw design details, and the cost was right)

5 inch way to much for me I only wanna go 1inch 2 at most any more than 1 it will push the front end threw turns. If they came out with a +1 I'd try it if the price was right.

 

But if I am just riding the dunes wouldn't the 5 inch extension be fine?
