swingarm extensions....need feedback
anybody tried these on a stunt bike?? i'm looking to get a set for my gsxr 1k, for the occasional "ladder high" wheelie....i am really thinking about getting a bolt on 8" over set but kinda question the strength.....any feedback would be appreciated, i have some time to research it as i still haven't gotten it running yet....

I think bill d had some on his stoppie r1 once, if i remeber write. Ive ridden with a few people with them and havent seen them snap just make sure you get some 7075 ones and call it good. I bet you can even find a used aftermarket swingarm on the flea bay

The funny thing is that i was doing ss circles and mike g or someone out in wisconsin pointed it out to me and i was like **** that must have been cracked for a long time because the crack was filled with dirt lol, kinda weird , now i check it all the time . I think it was from doing fast wheelies over these speedbumps they put up at out spot .

Just make sure you get a quality set of extensions and you should be fine Ryan; I've sold quite a few RoaringToyz and Exoticycle ones and haven't had any problems There are 400hp drag bikes running these things and launching very hard on sticky tires; like everything a cheap-China knock-off won't take the same abuse as the higher quality ones though and that is the last thing you want snapping when you are on one wheel.

My buddy had a set of exotic cycle extensions on his K7 Gix 1000 the only thing that happened was he twisted the adjusting bolt during a launch but he had a built motor so you should be ok I have a 6in set on a spare swing arm for the 929 for rolling burns but you can still get it up really good in 2nd.
