Why replace the OEM E Ride Pro swingarm?
Heavy Hitter developed the Rogue in a racing environment where the OEM swingarm consistently bent under hard riding through whoops, fast corner entries and jump landings, even at stock power levels. A bent arm is a race-ending failure and damages the drivetrain parts downstream of it. The Rogue is a single welded 6061-T6 billet structure, and its bearing system was redesigned from scratch: each needle bearing carries a 6,500 lbf static rating against 1,030 lb for the OEM bearing, and the 52100 nitrided steel retaining sleeve corrects the bearing side-load problem seen on stock bikes.
What does the 2.5 inch extension change?
Adding 2.5 in over stock brings the wheelbase to essentially the same as a Sur Ron Ultra Bee, which Heavy Hitter credits with better traction, control and cornering speed. Turning characteristics then depend on your fork setup and on the rear linkage and triangle configuration. Because the longer arm changes suspension articulation, Heavy Hitter strongly recommends pairing it with the Heavy Hitter Adjustable Height E Ride Suspension Triangle to keep the rear shock ratio where it belongs.

How do I install the Rogue swingarm, and what are the torque values?
You need 5 mm and 3 mm Allen wrenches, T30 and T40 Torx bits, a torque wrench and medium-strength (blue) thread locker. The tech sheet gives five torque values by fastener: the M8×1.25×60 custom shoulder bolt at 28 Nm (21 ft·lb), the M8×20 countersunk Torx bolts at 25 Nm (18 ft·lb), the M6×12 countersunk Torx bolts at 10 Nm (7 ft·lb), the M5×0.8×12 pan-head screws at 5 Nm (3.7 ft·lb) and the M4×10 socket-head cap screw at 2.5 Nm (1.8 ft·lb). Apply Loctite to the steel brake bracket pin, as the product page instructs. The exploded view with every part numbered is in the Heavy Hitter Rogue 2.5 Inch Extended E Ride Billet Swingarm tech sheet (PDF).
Which linkage and shock work with the Rogue?
The Heavy Hitter Rogue Billet E Ride Suspension Linkage is designed to be used with this swingarm; its geometry increases rear wheel travel and leverage ratio. Riders who want the Rogue's strength at the factory wheelbase can choose the Heavy Hitter Rogue Stock Length E Ride Billet Swingarm instead.
Where can I get it?
The Heavy Hitter Rogue 2.5 Inch Extended E Ride Billet Swingarm is made by Heavy Hitter and sold by GritShift.
