Hey, please give me a list of swingarms out for a 400ex. I want to replace mine with one 1 1/4" longer than stock, and I dont know which one to get. List them and if you know the prices or where to get them from.
I can get a lonestar for $475 brand new. butI was also looking at housers because I like the idea of grease fittings near the swingarm pivot bolt. I dont have the money for a new one yet, but I will by this summer so I want to start looking around now.

Thanks for the help!!!

When I buy one I'm most likely going with RPM, or Laegers.

I just got a trick looking RPM swingarm. it's bluevien and very sweet looking. list price is 549.99, and after shipping and everything it was like $560.

It was between this and a leager, but i would have had to wait to get a black laeger swingarm because it would have been a special order. and RPM has some in stock...i was gonna get a black one, untill i heard about the blue vien.

But sometimes you'll get lucky and some places will have what you want. my friend called a few places looking for a walsh swingarm, and couldn't find one in stock. so then he called this other place that he new had a laeger in stock, and they just so happen to have a walsh. wierd.

I got the new style LoneStar on mine. And it looks awesome!! I havent had a chance to put it to the test yet. But im sure it will hold up fine. The new ones are a lot beefier than the previous kind.

Yeah I like the RPM ones a lot. They are priced well, and I thought they had some kind of warranty. Check out Baldwin for Laeger, LSR, and JB. East Coast has Walsh, Roll, and Gibson..

i have owned a lonestar and a houser, and i would say the houser is not only the best i have used, but the best looking as far as toughness. neither of them cracked though. one advantage of the houser is the chain roller setup that he uses from a cr250. it is a much better setup than the lonestar.

I just got this swingarm for my R from k and k. The welds are great, and it bolted right on with no problems.

Nacs didn't you have LSR A-Arms? I know I used to like Laeger and wouldn't run anything but Laeger, but now Walsh would be my #1 choice. I think I will be going with Arens stuff though...
