I've seen a few with stretched swing arms. Wiseguys Choppers sells a 4" stretched arm. In their install instructions they say that you have to remove the passenger footpegs. You also have to lengthen the brake actuator rod and drag arm.

I was looking into doing this as well, but was wondering if it is possible without removing the footpeg mounts for the passenger. I assume with this particular swingarm, they are a clearance issue. Anyone done this without having to cut off the pegs?

my bike is bobbed out and every thing that can be cut is already cut. i am just looking for the cheapest way possible to do this. if i can do it my self i would rather that than buying one already made.

look at his site and ebay adds. i think if one could fabricate and weld the pics of his speak those proverbial thousand words.
