swiingarm????

I have another question for yall....I want to get an extended swingarm, does anyone have any places in mind that sell them or is it best just to fab your own??? Also, I see people using newer swing arms off of crotch rockets like one off of gsxr, do you have to fab them to make them fit, or does it just bolt right into place?

Including information about bike year and model may elicit better responses.
And it's easy to put the information in your signature where it will automatically appear in posted messages.
When done, the signature information appears in all posts, past and future. :cheer:
And may be changed as often as desired.

Good Fortune! :)

The GS suzuki arms are almost a drop in and add a good bit to a 650/750 kaw. You will have to change the shocks, the mounts on the arm are different. You tend to find them around here from time to time, actually there were 2 of them for sale not to long age. The monoshock stuff is anything but a drop in deal.

This is one of the best places to get an arm for these KZ's. He will talk to you to find out what you want to do and build it to your spec's or build one of his standard arms. They are top quality arms. You can go to E-Bay and look under "dragbike" and he has a listing in there to buy one. What type of arm are you looking for...one to run struts or to run shocks? How long do you want to go or how much longer then stock?
