Thanks Rich
Did you lengthen the swingarm in addition to moving the shock mounts? You mentioned earlier that you had "banana-ed" it. Does that mean that the end is angled upward slightly?

My questions, to anyone who done these mods, is, how much better do your bikes handle in comparison to stock? And are there any drawbacks in making these changes?

p.s. I am amazed by the response to this subject, and am very happy to see all of the useful info shared by all who have contributed.

Yes Tom , I cut the swingarm and angled it upward, Did not lenthen it since I wanted to keep a short wheel base for tight trail rides
