I dont see any problem with stretched swing arms on actual drag bikes. It serves a valid purpose.

This. Virtually no vehicle is manufactured with drag racing in mind. They all had to be modified in one way or another... Wait I know... the bike is already too "iconic" to be modified. |

Well if you're going to modify a bike for drag, why wouldn't you start with a Busa or ZX14? They are cheaper, more stable, more torquey, and have more mods available.

Hey when the "Busa first came out somebody had to be the first to mod it for drag racing... Besides, I believe that the BMW has more ponies than the ZX-14 or the 'Busa.
