Nitrous bottle on swingarm...

6.01 in the 1/8th this past week... soon as it goes into the 5.90s or 9.20s, I'm sprayin it

I've got no room in the trunk anymore thanks to my custom $10 home depot tiger tail, and the swingarm looks like the best place. I was thinking about having some tabs welded to the swingarm, and mounting one of those billet brackets from Schnitz.

Any tips or drawbacks to this setup I'm not aware of ?
Best to mount bottle right side up with the siphon, or upside down with no siphon ?

Pretty sure ZX12Richard's bike is set up like this. I remember him posting some pretty large pics, but I can't find them.

The usual thanks and appreciations in advance apply, lol.

Nazty was right side up with siphon (but in trunk) and only worked half the time - did it the other way and was better...

How many inches over stock is your arm? I have mine in the arm right side up with a siphon tube. No problems with it. I bought the billet bracket from Schnitz and just welded it right to the arm. No tabs or anything needed.

Not sure it matters, as long as the siphon points back. Mine was under the seat upright, with a siphon. Keeping a full bottle is key.

Nice ETs! What are your 330s / MPH?

Osti, I'd like to have the bracket removable so I can go back to stock wheelbase (bolt on extensions). I figure a tab or two welded in the right spot and the bracket can bolt right to it.
