trying to get better hook

[ShamRok]

ok i just got this 2000 shee, piped, jetted, boost bottle, you know basic mods, with holeshot hd tires, i was just wondering how long of a swing arm i should get to hook better in dunes and hard dirt trails

[decon]

well to hook up better, you dont lengthen your swingarm, you shorten it. you can get your stocker shortened -2 by www.quicksandmotorsports.com for about 130. although its not too good for dragging in the dunes, it will hook up like crazy in the dirt, and still be real good in the dunes and for jumping (except for dragging in the dunes ) . alot of people on the hq have -2 swingarms and love it, they say you wont regret it.

I would go with a -1 or -2 like decon said if you go to short you cant do anything but wheelie in the sand. I took my banshee to snake hunt weekend and left my -3.5 ls swingarm on it and I couldnt do anything but wheelie.

Love mine & primarily dune. It's not like you can't do anything but wheelie, wheelies are definately easier to do, but it's nothing uncontrolable at all, I have no complaints. The only time I really have problems is when dragging, high RPM 2nd gear starts can get a little hairy...but I don't have my bike setup to drag, I like riding in general. On the dirt, it's night/day.

thanks for all the help i'll probably go with the -2 it sounds like it should work pretty good

If you get the stock one cut -2 you can buy a plus 4 extender off ebay

for when you go to the dunes wich will give you +2
