Here you go:

C and S custom is the best place the send it to. Also don't listen to the haters on here. It is YOUR bike and as long as YOU like it that is all that matters. Just be aware that it will kill your handling in the corners but if you are like me and don't really care about the handling then go for it! I love the looks of a lowered and stretched bike!

Also be aware you're going to need a lot more parts than just the swingarm.
But, yeah, that's a really bad idea if it's your first bike. It destroys your turning ability, which is really difficult for a learning (or any) biker to get a handle on. If you're just going to be hauling it to and from the track, and drag racing there, then you're good, but be aware that on the street it's really easy to cross the line on a turn with a stretched bike, and that can easily be the death of you. Stretched and lowered bikes do look cool, but they come at the price of handling. Don't be a squid and high-side yourself over a curb because you wanted a bike that looks cool.
