"When you’re riding the greatest torque to weight ratio on the planet, you must blast beyond lethargic unassuming cageriders every few minutes to release pent up machine/man stress-inducing anxiety. There exists uncontrolled relish and glee in this exercise."

Kawasaki KZ400 extended swingarm

An easy mod for kz owners, I put on a 2010 Kawasaki Ninja EX250 swingarm on. The pivots are the same width, all you have to do is swap the pivot sleeves and pivot bolts. You can even reuse the dust seals. After cleaning off the old tabs I mounted the swingarm with the mono shock bracket facing down. 

The fun work comes when you have to make and mount shock brackets and relocate the brake arm, oh yea and chop off the exhaust- but that's not a bad thing cus now the bike sounds better! My fabricator Jordan Hicks had some Honda Forman atv shocks hanging on the wall so we used those.
