EXTENDED SWING ARM QUESTION

[XBLASTERRACERX]

I just got a +3 swing arm and I know I need a new chain but do I need anything else?

 

[blasterfreek30]

if its from the swingarm shop, u might want to reinforce it a little, since i have had two of them crack from jumping

longer brake line

Are you serious with what you said about the swing arm shop blasterfreek30? Well I was planning on purchasing a swing arm from them, how can I reinforce their product? With a +4 will I still be able to do willies?

You can still wheelie with a +4 it just takes alot of power or alot of clutching.

Paulie B, what do you mean by power? Exhaust, better air cleaner and sproket/chain?

Something in the range of high 30's to 40's would be enough to pull the wheels up without tryin too much with a +4.
Of course taking a stock blaster and reving it to the moon and dumpin the clutch will pull the wheels up too with a +4 lol.

My +4 swing arm is holding up just fine!, some people can destroy anything!?, I LOVE the fact that my front end stays on the ground now!!!, it's hard to race when the SOB is standing straight up in the air! on a second gear launch!!!, I'm sure that if I used first gear for something besides driving thrue the staging area I could get it to come off the ground!
