williamjernigan Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I have heard from the past from banchetta and others that one of the best mods that one can do to his banshee to get his power to the ground is to shorten his swingarm by 2". I'm just conserned about how it may feel cramped and feel like when I rode my blaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjernigan Posted September 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 Are their carbon fiber swingarms out yet. I know that they are working on carbon fiber axles so I was just wondering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjernigan Posted September 26, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I have found a swingarm on ebay but I'm not sure if it is worth the money. Please give me some advice as far as if this sounds to be like a buy. I have copied the description and this is what it says. ""Swingarm is constructed of 11.Ga. 1"X 2" steel tubing & Laser cut 1/4" plate steel. Joints are formed to fit front pivot tube & rear 1/4" plate; adds strength & smooth transition. Swingarm is strong as stock has skid plate mounting brackets & weighs 10 pounds. Will fit any year Banshee with a stock shock & axle carrier. Swingarm has a primer finish.""

How much are they asking for it? Sounds like its the stock adjustment, and not a roundhouse style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
