extended swingarm

[thopiang]

sirs:

1. can we extend our stock swingarm thru weld?

2. or is there an available extension kit for our stock swingarm?

3. or is there an aftermarket swingarm that is 2 to 3 inches longer than our stock swingarm?

pros and cons of extended swingarm (2 to 3 inches extended)

thanks guys

bro thops..

whats your reason why you want an extended swingarm?

well for the sake of coming up something new with my bike nyeheheh joke

sir job, i just want to extend my rear tire a little further, coz am planning to install 3.5x17 rim with 140x60/17 tire. and it will look good if it will be installed a little further backward. 2 or 3 inches will do.

great mods paps.. my concern here are the following:

1. can ur chassi handle the weight of 3.5x17 rim with 140x60/17 tire. lets consider the strength of material. T135 body was designed to carry the load of an underbone parts not the big bike parts.
2. swing arm mods are RISKY due to vibration specially during highspeed..
3. having additional weight can slow the performance of ur engine

mods are great but pls give attention to the SAFETY of your bike. i still giv my 2 cents, goodluck to your mods. hopefully it wil work soon..

thanks for the concern papz

on no. 1, we already done it with fury 125, installed modified swingarm and used 3.5x17 rim with 160x40 tire.

2. i will consider it papz, thats why 2 to 3 inches is enough for me

3. engine mods will do the rest heheh

ive seen swingarm extensions kit being sold from internet sources, but i think i prefer the weld technic rather than bolt on.

keep on coming mga papz

ok bro thops

from experience...

extending the swingarm
-will increase the wheelbase.
-will make high speed much stable due to increase wheelbase
-need extra effort to turn your bike, but you can accustomed in to it in due time just like me


it can be done bro but make sure your welder knows what hes doing
and knows the strength of the materials to extend the swingarm.

thats a good mod bro, go for it!
for the sake of modding and new look
go go go!

i already talk to my welder, kaya daw nya, in fact nakafabricate na sya ng swingarm for 250cc bike

kailangan ko lang ng extra stock swingarm, ayaw ko kasi mabakante motor ko hehehe

dunno of lengthen swingarms
but there are surely aftermarket widened swingarms in indo


but fitting a nsr sp swingarm naturally makes it longer n gud looking

 

[sniper31]

Yzf R1 extended swing arm

Maybe we cand do to our beloved T135. Making longer swing arm.

go for it bro!... as a fabricator here in australia i dont think its got something to do with the chassi.. unless you carry 3 sacks of rice going home from the office.hehehe!now thats an issue!
the issue here is can your shockies handle the magnified leverage? and can your engine handle the modification? why not? if you got a modified motor and a good shockies?.... heheheh! am i right thops?
bro ill give you some ideas... think about light stuff.. chromoly pipe bro...
lighter than aluminiun and stronger than steel. thats what we use here in fabricating rock crawler chassi and roll cages.but you have to consider triangulation patern to make it more rigid.your not using this for long rides right? pretty hard on the maneuver bro.looks and scooting around town is the go... drug racing yes! prevents wheelstands if you got the right formula regarding power of the motor and right setup of your shoxx. im makin one now for my bike!hehehe!
thats why be adventurous like thops and dont think like a goose... :wink:
