mattw204 Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 im building a raptor 720 stroker with a kms turbo and wondering about how long of a swingarm i need to keep the front end under control. im not going to be dragging all the time and it want it to be short enough to be a joy rider also. i was thinking between a +4 to a +8. what do yaw think? anything i would enjoy greatly -matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gipperz Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Need more info, are we talking sand, dirt, grass? What kind of tires? Body weight? Give this info and people will chime in and give you some ideas. :beer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BasicBajaX Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Are you having problems keeping the front down now? I have a +6 on my KMS DS730 and with a good setup i was able to keep the front down on the launch. Its a good feeling to launch fairly hard under moderate boost in second with a 17 front sprocket and not until 4th and fifth under full boost will the front rise up as boost rises. :ohmy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattw204 Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 sorry about that last post...i was a little under the influence. well i plan on using it as a daily ride. i just want it to be fast as hell and when i feel like dragging i want to be able to. probably some turf taimers or razrs for tires and probably a mid-high port...maybe a drag port i donno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
