    They are custom made and will cost you roughly 4 grand with the widened wheel. I've looked into this. 6 Inches over looks good with a 240 tire. I just cruise and don't use the bike to it's racing potential but I love the buell. To each is their own.

    How long do you want to go? If its a couple inches, you could swap in a swing arm from an SS. Mine has one. Well it's my last bike. But, you get the idea.

    It only looks right if you swap tails. If you keep the firebilt tail the 2 inches isn't noticeable. I love how your bike sits....is that just the scg suspension or is it lowered more

    Oh I thought he was talking about an S. It's an SCG. It's stock ride height.

    There's nothing wrong with it. Not everyone corner carves and races on a track. I personally think as long as the extension isn't like drastic meaning like 6to 8 inches out max with a well designed arm it will be clean but I also like the bike in it's stock form too. Different strokes for different folks man just because it's not up your alley doesn't mean you have to crap on what someone else wants.

    Me personally on an r model wouldn't waste money on an Ss arm because it won't look right without the s tail(unless you intend to switch go for it). I've seen it done and it looks like a stock r model still. Sext9 bike looks amazing I think. My idea of right paint right ride height etc etc.
