    how long is it now? an inch on a swb bike is going to make big difference, but an inch on a 70" bike isn't going to do much of anything, know what i'm sayin? are you talking about your 14?

    Hmmm I wasnt talking about my 14 but I know I can stretch it about an inch and a half more to reach 65inches! Will it make a difference?

    knowing what you do with the bike, i think you'd be better off leaving it where it's at. if you want to concentrate more on the track, i might stretch it a little more. ask that your oil pan what it wants to do LOL

    As mentioned... basically the shorter the bike, the more of a difference "an inch" actually makes. The shorter the bike, the more you'll notice the benefit.
