If anything it should be more stable with the longer wheelbase.

hmmm... I did'nt think it would handle the curvy stuff as well as stock.... would'nt that long ass chain slapping around be scary at around 160mph and above?

Mines 8 inch over and its fine.Just can't fly into the corners and have to watch the throttle coming out of the corner.

The longer she gets the less she'll want to turn. Stable in straight line and fully intent on stay9ing that way. If you a boulevard cruiser not a big deal. If you like the twisties she won't be nearly as much fun.

Should be perfect. We went with a 3" arm on the Corbin Turbo.
