2 or 4 inch stretch

[XWARRENX]

looking for pics of a 2 and 4 inch stretch.
how much additional launch effort does each allow?

I am also thinking about a 4 over tail......would 4 inch stretch be too short?

I do not want an adjustable rear, I want a fixed.

Go 4 inch.

[XWARRENX]

is that what yours is?
who did the arm?

[Jimzu]

No. Mine is a 6 over arm from Myrtle West. You can see details in my build thread in Members Projects. Very clean arm.

[XWARRENX]

the prices seem to be in the $400-$500 range without doing the box option
your 6 still looks good and would be in proportion with a 4 over tail.

[Jimzu]

Personally, I think a 4 over arm is perfect. Both proportionately and all around performance-wise. I think a 4 would look fine with a stock tail. I got a 6 because I just don't care about corners...

[XWARRENX]

is yours the 600 arm or a busa with the box mod?
I love the white on black........very cool.

[Jimzu]

Mine is a Busa arm with the top box removed and lower brace installed. MWC's extended boxes are actually tapered the same as the stock arm to look close to OEM. More detail in my build thread. Thanks.

5" over with a catalyst 4" over tail puts the edge of the tire with the end of the tail. gsxr 600 arm.

Hey B3

I'm getting hooked hard on the busa.....the fucking XX was easy to keep as is.....nothing was available for it.

I'm getting to be of the same opinion about corners.  With 6 inches over, does the front stay
planted when you whack the throttle?

Yep it stays planted as it usually just blazes the back tire off so it cant wheelie.... i wish i had gone 4" instead of 6" on mine, with the gear change i have and the stretch it fries the shinko once it clears 8000rpm..... honestly i dont think the handling is THAT bad for 6" over, certainly nowhere as good as stock but it still turns OK, i just wish it would hook better... i guess if i ran really low air pressure on the street and a soft spring and compression it would probly hook a little better on the street... on the track it hooks fine though

I am 6 over now but when I was 7 over it was actually still wheeleing on the street. If I was cruizing around 20 ish and whacked it with warm streets it popped rite up, especially if the wife was on it too. ( street bike ). At 6 it is still  pretty hard to keep it down and thats strapped too. I usually 60ft in the 1.41- .48 range.
