biggun6ss Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 A friend of mine was wondering if anyone has ever tried one of these things. Says its supposed to extend your swingarm by 2 inches using some brackets and new bolts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallrat Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 I've seen em...kinda scared me. If I didn't jump, or ride whoops, or actually even ride on anything other than pavement then MAYBE I'd consider it. I dunno man, that's not a good place to have a failure.

sheecandy Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 you could have a fab shop modify the stock swinger for the price of one of those extender things and be alot safer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

race-a-holic Posted March 30, 2006 Report Share Posted March 30, 2006 I used one for a while from JTM.It worked flawlessly.Never had a problem.Mine was a +5.I think they also have a +3.It also had alot of adjustment so I could use a wide variety of sprockets without changing chains.I give them an A+.It is made out of aluminum and comes with all necessary hardware if I remember correctly.I don't "think" you'll be able to use a rear skid plate.Keep in mind though,I don't do jumps.I'm more a drag racer.Their ad use to be in the back of dirtwheels.

I've had it for about 3 years... It has worked great for me... I've never had any problem with it... also I have 3 friends who have the same thing and none of them have had any problems... what I like is you can put it in or take it out in about 20 min's.. so if I'm riding tight trails I just take it out... if I'm riding dunes or hill climbing I put it in... only bad thing is the skid plate wont fit.. and you need 2 chains.. one long and one short Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
