Swingarm...........
alright zx-12 boys &girls....due to my having surgery on
my right wrist(carpel tunnel)i will be sidelined for the
next 4 weeks.......so i figured that this would be the best
time for me to start tearing the old bike down and getting it ready for the turbo........now heres my question... ....
i want to go with an extended swingarm but i am undecided
as to what length i want.....i will still be driving my bike on the road(not as much as i used to)
i dont want an adjustable arm or do i ?thats where i am getting confused ........i need your help....paul?turboblew?
madmike?anyone?????????? any input and websites would be
appreciated...........

I have the 0-6" adjustable from Frank Adams!!! He also has 0-8". Frank has a really good turn around rate!!!

I enjoy the adjustable arm because I (I mean my hubby) can set it back to stock and just remove the extra link. I do ride my bike most of the time with the 6" ext. It tends to be a big pain (for Kzz1) to remove the links every other day because we ride our bikes as much as we race them. I have no problems everyday riding with the 6" arm....
Gixx1300 - makes a durable Bolt-On if you do not want it welded on there!!! Check this thread!!!

It really depends on what you like. Do you wanna try to run the turbo at the stock setting as well as have the ability to adjust it as far as you need to???
or
You know already that you'll need and leave it at 6 or 8"???
I have seen Turbo bikes with Stock (That's a hairy ride), 4", 6", 8" and even 10"...I am not sure which is the best for a Turbo!!!
