Extending Swingarm

Post by BusaSi »

Hi

Does anyone know someone near Plymouth that could extend my Hayabusa swingarm, I'd like to use someone local rather than send it off up the line. I dont want to use bolt in extenders which I can get online, as its now running a turbo :lol: thanks in advance.

If you want you can send it to me, I get them done all the time, several different options are available depending on what you want and how long you want to extend your wheelbase and whether you want to keep you spindle and adjusters or whether you want something a little different doing Polishing and anodising are also available.

If you are in the Plymouth area, go and see Al Welch at Welbro in Ivybridge. He's done quite a bit of one-off stuff in the past, including a couple of bikes featured in Streetfighters. Not sure if he still does much with bikes, but definitely worth popping up to see him 8)
