dont bother. extended swingarms are a waste of time on a) an f4i, b) a bike thats not going to be seriously modded to hit the dragstrip. unless you're just wasting the bike as a show bike/ wanna look cool then checkout the cbrzone banner at the top of the page. i thinkn they have them. just be warned you'll be one of the guys that i mkae fun of for wasting their bike to make it a non-manuverable hunk of junk.
and if you are seriously getting ready to drag race it. i strongly suggest that you sell the bike, save the money that you would have spent on the swingarm and buy a 954, tlr1000, busa, zx12r, or other liter bike that will actually perform at the dragstrip. hell you can get pre assembled bikes like the one i listed for the price you'd sell your f4i for...

Extended swingarms on non-drag bikes are akin to putting a big gay plastic wing bolted to the trunk of your 102HP Toyota Tercel with the spinner hubcaps from Walmart.

It's aweful, and here in Atlanta, I only see one demographic doing that mod.

Hey, if you like them and like the look. I say go for it. You were just asking about them. Who cares what everyone else thinks. Its all about what you think and what you like. It's your bike. There are many kinds out there. Bolt-on, Weld-on, and a new swing arm. all up to what you want to spend.
