Default Departmentofsuspension - Long Swing-Arm Q.
Supposing – just supposing that someone wanted to install your extended single-sided swing arm into an otherwise stock 999, would this work and would you just need the ride height adjuster bar from a 748 – 998?


(Obvoiusly wheel/hub/brake etc - I'm not that stoooopid)

Just day-dreaming here, you understand.

I actually have a short swing-arm. I have a 998.

Just interested to see if the long-jobby will drop into a 999 and how much jiggery-pokery would be required.

Many thanks for clearing that up for me.

He's just going to have to by a 1098.

another possibility might be a different shock. They can be made in any length or configuration.

Someone just forgot about travel
