Are you doing the swing arm yourself?

Very cool!

  Thanks and yes, I'm doing the swing arm myself.  I needed it 1-1/2" shorter for better traction since it won't scale out right with the stocker.   We'll see how it works.... ???

  Next question is which fenders look better?

  I ran cut last year but I like the full look better.  It made me nervous with my ass hangin' over the rear studded tires also... :lol:

   So I'm a wimp!  I installed heated grips and wind-jammers this weekend.  I also got tired of digging for the battery to put a charger on it when it's -20 so I added a set of remote charging studs.  I'm getting lazy in my old age.  ;)
   The bars on the end of the grips are to keep my hands from sliding off when I'm cornering.

full fenders for safety's sake. :thumbs:


   Here's one of our buddie's ass after falling onto his rear tire last year......  You can actually see the dual cuts from the studs.. :rofl:  He was ok.

Just finished welding the -2 swing arm.  Time for some clean-up and paint.

  Thanks!   I painted it last night with (my favorite) bedliner paint and should have it installed and ready to scale out tonight. :thumbs:
