MTR has been on the market for a long time and has been used extensively in both the European and Word Championships. Team MTR in Italy will sell you a swingarm that, according to specification, allows the rear wheel to be moved forward 35 mm more than a stock swingarm. Tekmo, on the other hand, can offer swingarms for other manufacturers Yamaha and Honda to name a few. The MTR swingarm will only fit the Austrian machines, KTM, Husqvarna and (now) GasGas. We’ve taken a closer look at those sold by MTR and Tekmo. On the market today, there are a few different retailers of aftermarket swingarms to choose from. This might make it easier to put your front wheel on the inside of your opponent in the corners?

Some of them are just for show while others can actually help make the bike, and the riding, better. There are a plethora of different aftermarket products available to purchase for our bikes.
