the bikes overall wheelbase may not need to be longer..
but the swingarm will be longer w a large motor mounted there..
this will effect the bikes handling!
climbing, cornering, coming out of corners, etc..

crossbreak said:if the motor is close to the pivot, its influence is negligible. the wheelbase does not have to be longer either, thats just a design question.mounting a large motor on the swingarm will increase unsprung weight..
