Hey guys,
I'm in the market for some new J-arms and swingarm I am trying to decide what combination of width/length that I want. Right now I am running stock arms & a +6 extended stock swingarm, not sure that I like the 6" swingarm as it feels like the tires are too far out from underneath the bike which seems like I am loosing traction during acceleration & braking.
Theres a set of Stellar J-arms up for sale in for sale section that are stock width/+3 forward that I've been considering buying, anyone have any experience with +3" forward arms for dune riding? I was thinking I could run +3 arms to extend the front out a bit and then run a +4" swingarm instead of the setup I am currently running but not sure how the bike would handle for dune riding. Right now my front end is a little narrower than the rear so I'd like to also get them about the same width for better handling, If I was to go with those arms that are for sale I would have to run a wider offset wheel to change the width but i've heard that causes unwated bump steer???
Any suggestions here would be appreciated!
Here are specs of my bike incase anyone is wondering;
-+4MM short rod stroker
-Fully race ported
-LRD Exhaust
+4 Timing
-65.5MM Bore
-34MM PJ's
-Custom RK Tek Cool Head & Domes
-R1 Clutch setup with DD Lock up clutch
-25X12X9 12 paddle extreme haulers
