2stroke in my blood Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 hi there. im after a swing arm for trail/ open dirt road riding. i will be running a 421cc cub engine and would like an extended swing arm, not sure what size would be best but im thinking around a 4+ would be good?? thanks Quote
Fastassbanshee96 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Don't have a swing arm but you might want to rethink the cub for trails. If your still in the process of building and haven't gotten the cylinders yet I would look into the serval. That's what I just built for a trail bike. Quote

Fastassbanshee96 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 Oh ok well I think my buddy is selling his. Pretty sure it's a plus 6 stock carrier. I'll ask him how much he wants for it and get some pics. Quote
05stroker Posted March 29, 2011 Report Posted March 29, 2011 I have a +4 that's still on my bike but coming off soon. It is black and it is the roundhouse style carrier. The carrier is not for sale. I have another guy that I sent some pictures to this weekend and I am just waiting for a reply. If he does not want it I will let you know if you are interested. It is in decent shape, not perfect. The coating came off in a couple spots and there is a little rust starting. Quote

EZ2FLEE Posted April 4, 2011 Report Posted April 4, 2011 IMO anything larger than +2 singer in trails is not good, +4 is for the dunes more than trails......if your building a trail bike, i would stick with a +2 it stocker, anything over is just hard to trail Quote
EZ2FLEE Posted April 4, 2011 Report Posted April 4, 2011 K I'm posting this from my phone so I appoligize for incorrectly spelled stuff, the phone does it for me half the time.... And its not usually what I meant. Quote
