What do I need to install a extended swingarm

[Jgarcia6988]

hello all

I am getting my new DME extended swingarm next week and getting a shop to install it. I am wondering. What else do I need to buy and or replace for a smooth install

Thank you in advanced

Did you get a longer chain? New sprockets? Maybe ceramic bearings while it’s apart?

What are your plans for the bike?

Longer chain is needed, and the license plate will probably be in the way depending on how long u went.


Ceramic bearings, new sprockets, lowering links, sticky tire, extended tail section, all that isn’t needed but u might want it depending on how much money u wana blow.

Im curious How much are they charging?

Not yet so chain sprockets bearing. What about brake line and abs line ? Is that needed ?

No big plans just for looks

Do I need ceramic bearings? I don’t go crazy fast lol

If it’s just for looks, just get a longer chain and maybe lowering links. And a longer brake line, I forgot about that. Skip the rest.

$380 seems kinda high if you’re supplying all the parts but maybe the gen 3 requires extra work, idk. It’s about a hour, maybe hour and a half of work with the right tools on a gen 1.

Brake line is the most important my friend.

For example my DME Swingarm is 2-6 over stock and STD 4.0 adjustment. My core moto rear brake line lenght is + 6. I hope this info helps.

Good call. The chain is required I used 150 links. They will cut the excess. How many inches over stock are you planning to go? Right now my busa is 62 inches wheelbase

Shock or at least a new spring?

 

[Fernando]

here is what I got

 

[Fernando]

I forgot to mention rear lowering links and front triple clamp

What about the abs wire to the rear caliper?
Is there a plug-in adapter available yet?

Hello brother, ABS wire is good until 63 inches wheelbase, If you go above 63 inches you will need ABS extension harness

Mine is 0 to 4 inches

So your saying if mine goes to 4 inches I’m good ? I don’t need abs Extension
