Re: Project F3 Fighter
You wanna put a 9rr swingarm on an f3? Ive seen it done, but i believe it involved alot of fab work for suspension mounting. You can force a 9 rear wheel into the f3 swingarm, but you have to stretch it out half an inch, then it wont be perfectly straight anymore. Honestly, besides looking cool, theres no functional reason to for stunting.

Re: Project F3 Fighter
i think with the ez pull and the lever mod there will be so much travel at the lever you will have to pull it to the bar to get it to release and you may run out of adjustment ...the easy pull and the mod both make it easier to pull by increasing the travel at the lever..jmo

Re: Project F3 Fighter
nah i was planning to put the 900rr front rim/tire in the front...but i dont beleive it will give any stunting advantage.
how do stoppies work on the f3 lol? i was tryin all day and couldnt get the rear tire up...maybe its because of my ride height?
