I've seen and installed the swing arm extentions on bikes but do they make a similar setup for a blaster?id like something I can remove when necessary because this thing pulls the front hoops and will hang them for as long as you want I'm 6'3 and 215lbs.
 
I def need to hear about these gogo gadget swingarm extensions. Is there really a way to do that, safely and with any sort of durability? Im googling this....

I don't really have the money for an extended swinger right now, plus I don't do much jumping, mainly just some trail riding. Also, I'm 6'2" and 210, and it's fairly easy to tote the front tire without trying to really.
Anyway I was just wandering if these would suffice, and I'm guessing these are the ones you're talking about?
Original A&R 2" Swingarm Extension Kit "Blaster": eBay Motors (item 130413293022 end time Jul-30-10 11:11:37 PDT)

for what they cost you can save bit longer and get someone to extend yours of score one off egay. i dont like teh looks of em myself but i would assume they are ok...

There is someone running something like that on here (79bronco maybe?) but they were A LOT beefier than those. tbh I'm with the rest of them, if you have any welding skills at all you can extend your own swinger for less than the cost of those. Even if you have to take it a welding shop it wouldn't be much more than those I would think.
 
Those are exactly what I'm looking for!ill be ordering them asap ill let everyone know how they work.anyone used them they look to be built well.
 
I have a 4 1/2 swingarm extension, BUT i got it before ebay was INVENTED lol. Now im looking for a +4 swingarm from ebay for $200.00. I never had a problem with the extension, but i dont feel safe with it, and im always looking at it and checking the bolts.

Im also thinking about fabing up a extended swingarm with a raptor 250 swingarm from ebay for the round house but i dont know if the blaster parts will fit or what i need to make it work..
 
hey bronco....there's a guy that put a raptor 660 or 700 swinger on with the linkage and stuff...not a whole lot of info though

The raptor 660 and 700 are aluminum, the raptor 350 is not a round house. but the raptor 250 is a steel round house and so is a 300ex. I dont like welding aluminum but i can do it..
 
i know, he didn't weld on the swinger at all, but i think he had to do some machine work to where it goes into the frame....i'll try to find a linky

That would be awesome if you can find the link. Next door to the fab shop i work at is a machine shop and i weld and fab favors for him and he machines favors for me, if i can fab or get my bud to machine a alum swingarm to fit that would be awesome..
