Okay, I need help. Explain why someone would do that to their swing arm? Does it enhance performance? is bigger better? The seller says it's "aggressive looking." To me it looks like you could use it as a back up chain saw.

Buell made a good effort to reduce the wheelbase on that bike. When it came out, it was among the shortest in the industry.

Only reason to stretch a swingarm is if your're drag racing, or if you're a poser who wants a motorcycle that handles like a lumber wagon.

Hey now, don't be hating on wings. You need those when you're upside down in a tunnel.

Hillclimbing!
I assumed drag racing, I thought Kosman was the drag-racing builder to the stars.

Looks retarded for the street, that's what I think...
