Yeah. They came off a drag bike on ebay. I really wanted something a little longer. I'm a bigger guy and I thought that if I letngthen the bike a bit the bike wouldn't look so small when I plop my big ass on it. I'm 6'2" 250...

Well alright then... Where do I ship my stuff to? It would probably be a good idea to get some sort of estimate first but I have been looking up here in Canada and I can't seem to find anyone that will do quality work.

  • If it tastes that good, eat it yourself.

I bought a stage 3 dynojet kit for the carbs... what kind of performance difference is there between the 29mm smoothbore and the stock carbs with a jet kit?

I think that I might sell the swingarm here and see what I can get for it and then put it towards a 2" over. I found one at redline cycle and d&g chasis both about $600 plus shipping to Canada. The guy that I bought the swingarm off of on ebay paid $60 to ship.

So I just took a look on ebay for GSX-R swingarms and they are pretty cheap (in comparison to buying a custom one) is there a particular year that I should be looking at? and what about rims? Do I need to buy GSX-R set up?
