I know we like a longer swingarm for stability for road use but a longer race swingarm ? won't that be slower to go into turns ? Surely the race guys go for shorter ?Donsy
I will assume that those are the magnesium race swingarm which are 20mm longer than stock.
Thanks Ed,Randrew...you are a sick man. :stickpoke
Joe, the longer swing arm promotes traction and anti-wheelie properties. Turn-in is affected by front rake and trail (and tire profiles) and adjusted via ride height at the rear and fork tube height in the front (or, on SBK machines, eccentric steering stem frame inserts and swing arm pivots).
But you already knew that. :f4:

The apex is the middle of the 47 point turn they need to get into the prime showcase spot in the parking lot at the Vortex (restaurant/bar popular with that group).Ed it is because the guys that ride those have no clue what the apex of a corner is.
Assuming right Andrew, I would like one of each in my perfect dream world, I'll skip on the carbon one for nowDonsy
