welcome to Miniriders,
make sure you drop in and say hello in our Introduce Yourself thread while you're here.

from the ground up to the centre of my front swing arm bolt it is 410mm.

but do you mean from the ground up to the centre of the rear axle ?
if so, you'll get a few different measurements here, all depends on what size tyre the person is running, and what psi it is inflated to.

mine measures 225mm from the ground to the centre line of the axle

cheers, craig

Yer I am after a measurement from the ground to the swing arm bolt the one that runs through the frame

 

[my67xr]

ok, do you realise that every pit bike brand/type will have a different measurement then ?
you saw my measurement ?

my PY80 measures 300mm from the ground up to the centre of the bolt, it has a 12" rear wheel

my Atomik Pro X measures 380mm from the centre of the front swing arm bolt to the ground (12" rear wheel)

and my Suzuki DS80 measures 340mm from the ground to the centre of the front swing arm bolt (12" rear wheel)

Yer I just needed a rough measurement because I am going from a crf50 swing arm to a 160 swing arm and have to weld a shock bracket on the frame

Going from a 10inch rim to 12 inch

 

[my67xr]

ok, so you will really need the measurement from a 12/12 or 14/12 CRF50 based bike then

 

[mattycotter]

Yer it's a crf50 frame I am going ro be running front and rear 12 inch motard rim

Whats a 160 swing arm?

 

[mattycotter]

It's this one

[my67xr]

that swing arm is for a linkage rear end, are you converting the CRF50 style frame to linkage ?
the picture has it sitting upside down

 

[mattycotter]

Hey my67xr was your measurement with a 12 inch rear 14 inch front

 

[my67xr]

yeah all of them were with 14" front 12" rear

 

[GooseMan]

That is the same swinga in my atomik so can be used with a standard shock as well.

 

[GooseMan]

So are you gonna weld the bracket a little higher on the frame to keep it lower?

 

[my67xr]

That is the same swinga in my atomik so can be used with a standard shock as well.

that wasn't the original picture though, this was -

Ah right o then, good move going for the longer swing arm should make cornering much smoother.
