    200X Extended Swingarm?

    Does anyone know if extended swingarms are still available for a 83 200x? I saw that a guy was selling a 200x here in toledo a while back that had one on it looked sweet! so i assume that that were made at one time unless it was custom. Any help on this subject?

    They were made by numerous companies back in the day in cluding HRC (Don't quote me on the HRC thing, I heard it from someone that may not know what they're talking about). I haven't been able to find anyone other than a few custom shops that make them to order. Every once in awhile one turns up on eBay. I would also like to have one, but as it seems to be tough to come by I will probably buy a spare stock one off eBay and lengthen it myself. It isn't tough to do by the way. All you need to do is jig it up so it is straight and have access to a TIG welder, then it is any easy chop and section job.

    Sweeet! If your doing that and you're good at it, you should do one for me. I'm fat and lazy and still haven't gotten around to doing one for myself.
