Matt05 Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 Hey, I do mostly trail and ditch riding, and I know putting on a longer swing arm helps get the power to the ground, as does the front suspension getting changed, but for trail and ditch riding what should I go with? Quote

I know a longer swingarm will hurt your handlig but some nice suspension will help it Quote
racer Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 the longer swingarm will give you less traction on the trails. loose dirt o sand is another story. go with suspension mods up front. Quote
txblueshee Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 No a longer swingarm will not help power to the ground... helps your bike stay on the ground when you have a drag bike... Without the correct setup for it all you'll do is spin...IMO -1.5'' would be great... Mike Quote
broke Posted April 21, 2006 Report Posted April 21, 2006 I know someone with a -2 for sale, I'm not saying who, but I know someone. Quote
