HOW DO I STRETCH MY 600 RR???

IM LOOKING TO STRETCH MY 600 RR OUT ABOUT 3-4 INCHES...DOES NE1 KNOW OF ANY WEBSITES THAT HAVE SWINGARMS FOR 600 RR'S??? THANKS!!!

Well you can have your swingarm extended, or buy some extentions that bolt up to your swingarm. If all you wanna go is 3-4 inches buy the extentions.

get two trucks and chain one end of the bike to each truck. Leave alot of slack in the chain cause the trucks are going to have some trouble stretching the bike. Next on the count of three have the drivers/friends with the trucks floor the sh*t out of the truck. This should stretch the bike nicely.








I kid I kid................

Unless you want to destroy the beauty that is the 600RR, and the purpose it was designed for get a Busa and stretch that.

Most people buy the extensions, as in there arent many people out there that make entire swingarms for the 600. There are some, but not many. Most people just buy the rods and move it back. Personally, I dont like the look of it though. GL

whats the worst part about stretching out your bike..................having to tell your parents that you're gay

I mean, if you have only straigh roads, I guess its fesable, but, I just dont like the look of it like I stated before.

Guy had a question. Give him a answer. He did not ask for your opion.

Alright guys. Like I stated before, I dont like the look, but I told him what he needed, so did other. But there is no reason to be rude or bash him because he is doing something different. He is asking a question and wants to get responses on what to do and how to do it, not to get remarks on how stupid it is. So if you have information please add it, or how you did it. But please refrain from the comments that have nothingto do with the OP.

I LOVE  extended swingarms, it makes it so much easier to distinguish squids that just want to be seen from real riders
 
honestly if you just think you can't keep the front wheel down (thats BS move your weight forward, it'll stay down if superbikes can start fast, I'm pretty sure your 600 can do it) get those stupid straps that pull the front end down say goodbye to your fork seals though, but really its just going to get oil on the brakes and your probably still using the rear brake anyway so it doesn't really matter that much
and since you probably don't know how to turn anyway, oil on the front wheel shouldn't matter that much either
 
and like most squids you'll probably just wrap the leaking fork with a towel for a couple years so the oil may not even be a problem...
 
 
sorry that was a little brutal but its my opinion and I have a right to express it

i am having mine done 10" i talked to C&S custom and this is the cheapest and fastest. heres what they said..
 
Yes we can do that for you...It will run you $300.00 plus shipping back to you, usually $25 to $35...according to where you are....It usually takes about two weeks and we use 6061 aluminum to extend your arm... If you want to do this, you will just need to drop your swingarm and caliper hanger in a box and ship it to us with a note with your name, address and phone number and exactly what you want done to the arm. I will call you when it is complete and you can use a visa or master card to pay and we will ship back to you..Thanks for the inquiry....Lory- C & S Custom

Check out this site.  I've ridden a stretched 600RR before and oddly enough, the ride is quite stable.  My first assumption on looking at it was that the turning radius would be difficult, but it really wasn't.  Good luck with customizing YOUR bike. 

"I LOVE  extended swingarms, it makes it so much easier to distinguish squids that just want to be seen from real riders"
 
Now this truly sounds like a squid answer.
 
Just because someone is not like you or wants the same kind of mods as you that makes them a squid. 
Oh thats right I forgot you set the standards of what real riders are. FUNNY.
 
Build the bike how ever you want. It's your bike.

are you serious??? that is such B.S.. and the fact that you took the time to write that long post and didnt answer any part of his question was a great addition to the forum.. i have a 900RR engine in a 600 frame for DRAGRACING..does that make me a squid and i am sure that i can lean forward and at a 8,000RPM launch it will still come up, and as for the strap that is BS too you tighten it, do a run and loosen it..no more wear and tear than bouncing down a street or strapping it down on a trailer..
 
so wow pretty much everything you wasted your time typing, helped nobody and mad you seem ignorant...thanks for the contribution though..

Squids BLAH BLAH BLAH Just do what you want man don't listen to these stupid replys busting your idea's
Do what you want CUSTIMIZE your bike LIKE YOU WANT TO.
Not everyone wants to go to the TRACK.



How about this TRACK IS FOR SQUIDS!!

 
the straps put a lot of pressure on the fork seals (as does tying your bike down too tight in a trailer)  most of the time it won't destroy your fork seals for quite a while but the straps will pull the forks in an imperfect angle that squeezes one side of the seal against the fork body. If left like this for an extended period of time, the fork seal will leak.  Most of the time the seal will not be damaged but will leak oil right onto the brakes or tire, which tends to suck.   Thats quite a bit different than hitting a bump that lasts a fraction of a second.
 
Only a squid would extend the swingarm on their bike, dragracing is for losers, sorry but its true
its so easy to keep the front end down on a 600 anybody with a lowered front end or extended swingarm is just proving their complete lack of skill
my definition of a "real rider" is one that knows how to do more than one thing on a motorycle, squids don't care about anything but looking good and it seems like most of them thing drag racers look cool enough to immitate
