10.5 inches of rear travel

[StrokedTater244]

i just go done fabricating a new mount for a 400ex rear shock on a blaster swingarm. this keeps the bike at the stock ride height and gives 10.5+ inches of rear wheel travel. it may be around 11 inches but thats all the farther i could get it compressed and still be to read the measuring tape... heres some pics.

big thanks to AWK!!! he hooked me up with a stock swinger and a works 400ex shock last night so i could make this happen.. dont worry joe i had the entire shock covered just like you see the res. when i was tacking things in place.

thanks!! and yes... obviously the cost will go up.. but these will be way stronger than stock.. there are going to be gussets and reinforcements everywhere the stockers crack. price will still be lower than good aftermarket swingarms. plus over 10 inches of travel will be a little bonus.

hell joe..a big plus with this also is keeping the stock ride height... i know with a +3 +4 and a 400 shock it probably starts getting a little too high for more aggressive track ridiers.

oh and your welcome man..i tend to treat other peoples property as good or better than my own..just how i was raised.

Wonderin how ya got the lower shock bolt in? Always seemed like the sweet spot for a long travel bottom mount was right along the bottom edge of the side rail which is why peeps don't just move the mount. Is your bolt actually below the sides of the arm?

BTW: Nice to see someone giving folks this option!
