Holy cow, I just can't stop posting! OK, last one for today. Has anyone swapped an 06 swingarm (I believe it is 1 1/4 longer, right) on to an 05? I would be guessing it would be better, or do people like the 05 set up better? I am a bigger guy who rides aggressively mostly on trails and the occasional track.

Thanks!

you will also need the shock and linkage from an 06 to swap over.

And they are only 3/4 of an inch longer, but it does help.

yes the added length does help, however you will need a new linkage and rear shock. if your switching and get another stock shock and linkage, i dont think it would be worth it, but if you got a nice aftermarket linkage and shock combo you would really tell a differance
