Thoughts on a -2 swingarm

-2 Swingarm will work great for motox or tight trails.  I used to own Doug Eichners old motox banshee which had paul turner pipes and a -2 swingarm.  It handled great.  However I had to run knobbies in the sand if I wanted to even have a chance of keeping the front end down.  2 inches makes a big difference.  If your riding hardpack you will like it.  How ever I to agree with everyone.  PT mid range pipes suck.  Doug Eichners full built Duncan racing mx engine made 52hp with these.  With FMF fattys I made 59.  Ya the PT made more mid range and had much less of a hit.  But if that is what you want buy a 4 stroke.

I love my -2 because its great in tight trails.  Nose feels lighter.

I dont like it because I run nerf bars and the tires rub.  Also takes alittle getting use to with hills.

Would I do it again: Yes, but I would really like to try a -1 first.

 

Ive been running the -2 for yrs.  PM with any questions
