yea it still handles pretty well, nothin like before though. because it is lowered i can drag pegs very easily now but ive lost bout 10 mph in the curves from what i could do unextended. it will still come up too. its really unpredictable though tryin to walk it because the back tire will just explode sometimes and sometimes itll hook and stand up.. i love it though. imma get another 954 just to drive in the curves though.

How much was the swingarm? I have been looking for one and all I have found is the extension. Are they ok to use or just go all out with a new arm? Thanks for the help

the swingarm was 330. i got it from alumachrome, they modified my stock swingarm. they did excellent work but took em like 2 months to get it back. you can get one for under 400 bucks bare aluminum, chromes gonna cost between 800 - 900 bucks. i would go with the modified swingarm over extentions, i trust the work they did, looks strong as **** and i drag race my bike all the time at the track and it doesnt flex any.

Thanks! I am spraying. In an 1/8 I'm pulling low 6s. Looking for 5.9s shortly. Have been having clutch problems on spray in the 1/4, but all motor I pulled 9.4. Do you run at a local track? If so whatcha running?
