I missed one on e-bay about three weeks ago, i think it sold for about 200 bucks. just watch out in turns if you plan on ridingon the streets. doyou want an extended swingarm or swingarm extentions.

Not a fan of swingarm extensions, unless you plan on dragging the bike and some street cruising, then don't get one, if you want it for looks then buy a bike designed towards that... a chopper

Drop a sprocket in the rear or quit punching it . Putting a extension on it will change the way it handles . You like cornering ? Extending the swingarm will effect it's cornering capabilities .

Errrrr perhaps a cheaper option is to learn a bit of throttle control? If you think a 636 is bad wait till you get to a 10R or any other litre bike for that matter. An extended swingarm should really only be used on drag bikes IMO, it will suck in corners, and look stupid anyway. Kawasaki gave the 636 its wheelbase for a reason

I have yet seen what the suspension settings were for you. Play with the suspension first for you. It makes a big difference.
