What?

WK, the 04 600rr swinger fits (with slight mods) and adds almost 2". But I think you can get actual extensions for our bikes. I'm pretty sure the rear end setup is the exact same as the F4i, so even F4i rear end stuff should fit.

If you don't have an answer to the original question then keep your uninvited opinion to yourself. He didn't ask what you thought of extended swingarms.

Why do people have to hate on others because they like something different?

If you post sh!t (like you just did) on a public forum then you're fair game. Other people will tell you how they feel about it.

I have two pieces of advice to help you through these difficult times,

1. Get over it

2. Get over yourself

You're such a friggin' hypocrite dude. There is a world beyond your nose and your opinions... you should check it out sometime.

Stretched swingarms on a 600 makes no sense at all and unless you tell us it's for your own personal preference then we're to assume that you are wanting to stretch it to keep the front wheel down. In which case we'll call you a moron.

Maybe it's a showbike?

Anyways, I think stretching your bike out will slow down turn-in speeds... So if you're going for a performance aspect I'd say save your money and put it into something else, but if you're going for looks I'm sure you can get a fabrication shop to build something up for you.

There's a place in Europe that specializes in this, but you should ask the dude with the blue F2, he has a huge swingarm.
