And my old Velocity Turbo busa. I sold it about 3 months ago. made 418 RWHP on Steadmans dyno. Was not that great of a streetbike though. had the best of everything.

No, the frame was lighter than the engine and it was in back. so i just set it on it. The guy I got the bike from had taken it apart and I guess he thought he would fix it. I got the swingarm back yesterday. it's a 6" to 12" adjustable. Have not got the bottle bracket yet. so when it comes in today I will have to mount the bracket and have the arm powdercoated black. Rear shock, sprockets & Exhaust should be here today or tomorrow.

You going to run a newer fuel pump? If not, you need too notch the arm for clearance before powder coat...

Crap I forgot about that. I had the same problem on my 06. I should have got them to do it while they were extending the arm. Oh well I guess I will take it to work and do it myself at the plant. Sprockets came today. thanks. Rick. 16/44 vortec.

glad you got the sprockets. that gearing will work great for that long of an arm. Need anything else just ask.

Hickman customs out of South Carolina. Does really nice work and the kaw arms done in either 3" to 9" or 6" to 12" are only $400 including shipping both ways.

That's the gearing I use when I go to the track. I put mine at +7, works pretty good.
