I have a 04 w/ stock swingarm and derisi racing setup for MX. My main problem is thru the whoops @ the dunes 5th gear pinned will buck more than I like!

Was thinking of upgrading to longer swingarm and have heard that it cuts the bucking out of the rear completely with the longer swingarm.

Anyone have any experience on this? Prefer not to buy a $1300 swingarm setup if can avoid it. Thanks alot

Play around with your comp and rebound adj

you can find a swinger for 500 and you can send the shock back in for a revalve. the should only be around 700 tops. it will help a lot with the buck.

I wasn't happy with my R bucking so I turned it 4 clicks soft and now whoops are barely there I'm now running full throttle through them. I was going to save up for a matching Elka rear to match the front now it's on the back burner.

you just gotta change up the settings. i have the jh converted rear shock and gt link. the mx set up is 180 degree turn from the dune set up. i was bucking everywhere in waynoka 2 weeks ago
