Is a 4+ swinger to much

JTM Products makes some bolt on swingarm extentions. I have a +5 and it works great. It bolts on to the stock swingarm with no modifications so you can just take it out whenever you want. I got mine for drag racing and hill climbing but now that I'm used to it I just leave it in most of the time. I've had mine for the last two years and it's been great. When I got mine they had either +2 or +5. I found their number in a Dirt Wheels mag but if you're interested I could get it for you.

Never use those things. I cannot stress this enough. Chain tension, rough terrain, and normal use will cause these to break. You do not want your rear end coming apart in the dunes.

 

Especially aluminum. A much too soft material for a bracket that is stressed like that.

id go with a -2 swingarm that way when your aproaching an obsticle on the trail and you nail it you might get some front end lift so you dont just plow into every bump every time you gas your shee....... with an extended arm your just going to spin......but your bikes gonna look cool with that longer swingarm

anyone consider break over angles? if youve got some steep ass shit that youre gonna climb thats something to put in mind. i know ive gone over some things before where a +4 would have acted more like a skid plate than suspension member. a neg2 on the other hand will shorten up yoiur wheel base and keep your belly off them rocks.

That is why I run a skid plate on my +4 :headbang:
