here is a link to our build. We have a custom built +12 swinger. We also went with the 400ex chassi but we used an '05 gsxr 750

I've seen everywhere from +8 to stock length on the 600 hybrids, my choice would be +12 for drag, +8 for hill climbing and +4 for cruising, but it's really a personal preference.
