swing

This is a question for everyone with extended swing arms, i am thinking about doing a 3 inch extended swing arm in the future and was curious what everyone is using for a tail light and license plate set up.

Can that black plastic insert in the swing arm be taken off? Because I'm about to take all my stuff over to the shot blaster and don't want the plastic to die :(

The '99 has a Kerker so no center stand. Anybody use something like this? http://www.harborfreight.com/motorcycle-swingarm-rear-stand-66192.html?utm_term=66192&utm_medium=cse&utm_source=googlebase&mr:trackingCode=1A6E0F9E-782A-E011-B31E-001B2163195C&mr:referralID=NA

not sure if i ever posted up pics of CLIMAX with the wheels i bought from jum! been dealing with a ton of shit and the ex. i'm realizing i'm far better off on my own. it took a little TLC to get htese to fit due to my setup being a little different than jims. he was running the stock axel up...

Will a kind soul offer to me a quick dose of swing arm knowlegge? How will bracing a stock one compare to whatever the benefit of one 3" longer than stock? Is it like, install a frame brace, mod your swing arm, and you won't wobble anytime soon? You have a swing arm extended 3" because?????

need to install a extended swing arm, not really a mechanic type but willing to try any blogs on here telling how to take off and install a swing arm>

I've been thinking lately and Im just curious exactly how much my swingarm is extended. I didn't get a lot of good detail when I bought the bike. The previous owner was a bit out there and had not done all the work himself so he was pretty useless for details. I have slowly been discovering what...

I am going to check and reset the torque on my swing arm but I have a couple questions. Can I do this with the bike on the side stand or do I have to remove the rear wheel to accurately set the torque? Thanks Richard

Anyone every try notching out their own swing arm to allow a wider tire to be installed? If so how much did you cut away and what size tire did you use? From what I've been reading you can install a 170 with no mods at all, but I'd like to go with a 190 or maybe 200. My swing arm has a couple of...

It appears that on the shaft side of the swingarm there is a plastic cover that fills a hole in the swingarm closest to the tire. I think this will be able to be removed or modified for more tire clearance for those that feel they need a wider rear tire.

Well obviosuly I will be shopping for a swingarm. I would like some input.. Remember I am running a stock 15in wheel and dont plan on changing that. If money wasnt an object I would purchase a Taylor made Swingarm in a heartbeat!! 1) Who is running a 3in over swingarm? 2) Do you have a...

I would like to switch to a 3" streched swing arm, but don't have enough to buy the rim's yet . Not to mention there are so many great one's out there now to chose from. My question is can i still use my stock wheel on the extended swing arm , till i can upgrade to a 17 " wheel at a later date...

Hey Guys I Need Some Feedback. I Am In The Process Of Changing My Swing Arm And I Was Going To Go With A Braced And Notched Unit. I Talked To John At Pcw And He Said He Did't Have Any Standard Length Ready But He Had 3" Over Arms That Comes In A Kit Ready. My Question Is The Longer Arm Going...

I've finished putting my swing arm back on, now what is the procedure to know how tight the 2 bolts go it? The one with the standard bolt head went all the way but the one with the Allen head on it doesn't.... and of course I can't remember how it was sitting when I removed it...

I've been seriously thinking of stretching the 'Max since I'm keeping it. I want more of a "Chopper" look to the bike as that's what it is to me, a cruiser. I also thought about the notched swing arm for a 200 rear tire along with a stretch. Anybody have any pictures of a bike of this nature...

While waiting to get my rim back with the new tire I noticed the right inside of the swingarm where the pinch bolt opening is, the inside surface is not flat but curved. Is this normal

Can anyone who has done this mod comment on it? What did the bike do to require bracing of the swing arm and how does it feel after doing the bracing. I would also appreciate some links to sites that do bracing Thanks Firefly ________ Honda Wave series specifications
