we really appreciate what u doing n try to show us on this stretch kit in depth. We're riders but barely went serious on scooting lately specially the chf50. Where to start? here at ur Vlog. What we need to ask u to explain us r 2 things. We got the stretch kit ,the Ruckus swingarm & all.. but those that u're drilling & installing did'nt come with the kit. Could pls tell us if it is necessary to have 1 and if so if u can send us the size so we can manufacture it ourselves. Thanking u in advance.
Well Dawn seeing where you’re located at is there a way you could make a set of those brackets for the rear shock I’m not a welder or would be able to send photos so I could make them for mine I really would love to extend mine
Whats the latest yr i can get and stretch it? And also i heard that the ruckus extension frame/bracket will fit is that right or no? Note: i dont have one yet i want to get one and stretch it out before riding it? Thanks in advance!
I have done 10 metros this way and haven't had any issues yet (knock on wood) and the engine sits right and doesn't hit the ground... Are you still working on a fatty set-up? I am currently working on a 12x8 duel center shock fatty met maybe I will do a vid once I GET everything welded and ready to install..
good for you ive sold a few dozen stretches I make my way and would probably hold up way longer then yours putting all that stress on the cut off bar and the frame, not to mention mine can set whatever angles you want and not forced with only 1 engine angle, along with full suspension travel on stock shock Fattys have already been done and sold for a while too
i didn't read all the comments to find out is this modification for aesthetics or can i use this for installing a bigger engine and when will you have more of those kits available
I have a scooter 150cc I want to do that but scooter tolerate weight of 2 people and put strecht tire bigger than normal and use back suspension for a car thanks
i just bought a '02 metropolitan. i want to lower it without stretching it. stock but lowered... can you help me out.. i cant find any aftermarket suspension for a met.
no but you will need longer rear brake line, using the ruckus rear brake line will work People usually use the ruckus swingarm because the ruckus has a slightly wider rear wheel and more tire combinations because of the longer swingarm where the met wheel is very skinny and cant use anything larger because of the short swingarm Also using ruck swingarm you dont have to shave the plastic fender area to clear the wheel and you get full travel of the shock absorber with the attachment I include for the rear shock I never tested that on a met swingarm and most likely will need to shave the plastic rear fender area as the tire could hit Just something else to think about I wanted to have the use of the rear shock You can always go hard tail with the met swingarm then no risk of the wheel tearing up the plastics But its a good ride with suspension Look up my username on instagram I have many pics of my met
Andrew Baughman I did send you a link to where I sell them in a message on your you tube channel I will also update the description on the video with the link to buy everything comes to install the stretch, and rear suspension stretch, bolts, rear suspension brackets you will still need to get other items for the bike if you want it to look like the one in the video like longer brake cable, ruckus swingarn, ruckus rear wheel
mikegigabyte I know. i looked at it. I was just wondering if its the full kit or if theres other stuff i have to buy. im new to this stuff and just trying to get familiarized with it. Thanks.
Andrew Baughman once you get your e mail working email me instead mikegigabyte@gmail.com or join that site I posted a link to and message me on that site I can tell you everything you need to do to make the bike look like the one in the video
If you only cut 1/3 of the stabilizer bar off and leave the left side peace on it fits in to the stock mount stop pocket and there is no need for your vertical hangers... There is also no reason to cut down the frame bushings the mount will fit just fine it's just a little harder it GET it in there... And you can use a ruckus stock shock upside down with a eye to eye adapter...I dig your stretch but feel you over engineered it
you can cut the bar off the aftermarket stretches and still use it, but its alot of stress on that cut bar as it would only be held on with 1 bolt and not the correct engine angle as the ruckus engine angle sits differently then the met thats why I used the side straps, to get the correct angle that way the bottom of the engine doesnt drag on the ground, thats the engineering put into it Plus you can set the engine height to get whatever look your going after I try to get the engine to sit up as high as I can, then when you sit on the bike the suspension moves it down to the correct angle for the rear shock mount its easy enough to make your own shock extension with flat plates and bolt it on many have done this, you dont need to buy a $60 eye to eye extension and a ruckus shock you can also buy 1x1 square tubing and make a hard tail mount to get the exact stance you want too, dont need to use suspension in the rear but I like a softer ride You can also modify that stretch to install a fatty rear wheel too, but then you will need to make a offset rear shock mount for sure
Timothy Hebert you could just extend the engine mount back to stretch it but the main problem is your stuck with your tiny rear tire these honda bikes the swingarm can come off and install a longer one which allows a taller tire to be put on also I was able to add a 7 inch wide rear wheel on these bikes now too which we call a fatty rear Im going to see if I can add the fatty picture on this video or I may make another video showing it since I sell the stretch I also sell the parts to install the fatty wheel now too
here are the links www.ebay.com/itm/201783244020?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 www.ebay.com/itm/192077966780?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
the plate metal we were talking abt is on frame 6:40 on ur video on how to stretch. Thank u
Thanks for the video I bought a Ruckus kit and followed your directions ...I had some shock brackets made and it works perfect on my 06 metropolitan!
I want to buy the kit, we're can I purchase it?
my buddy got a metro never ever knew this could be done I'll definitely shoe him it vid man

What is the reason why we need a ruckus swing arm installed?
How do I stretch/lower a 2013 NCH scoot? I been looking everywhere for a extension kit
Whats the latest yr i can get and stretch it? And also i heard that the ruckus extension frame/bracket will fit is that right or no? Note: i dont have one yet i want to get one and stretch it out before riding it? Thanks in advance!
How did you mount the kickstand in the last picture
Can I use this method on a yamaha vino 50cc??? In my country we don't have met
Why did you need to cut off that piece of the frame extension?
awesome video, got some good ideas from it
Still waiting to see when your gonna make more kits whats an estimate on time till there ready
Will this kit fit on a 2006 Retro? It's basically that same style
Mike's please tell me the diameter of the disc? 10 radius? and size of the tyre profile
DO you still sell these kits and can we pm so I can get some information about their use?
Great work love the metro.
Making any more soon? Really need one soon:/
Any idea when you may have these kits available again? have a 2007 id love to stretch
I see ppl ask about the kit but no info nor reply
Can u stretch a tao tao 150 cc or 200cc lancer/hawkeye I want to stretch it but don't know how to get the kit or where need help lol please lol
I have done 10 metros this way and haven't had any issues yet (knock on wood) and the engine sits right and doesn't hit the ground... Are you still working on a fatty set-up? I am currently working on a 12x8 duel center shock fatty met maybe I will do a vid once I GET everything welded and ready to install..
good for you
ive sold a few dozen stretches I make my way and would probably hold up way longer then yours putting all that stress on the cut off bar and the frame, not to mention mine can set whatever angles you want and not forced with only 1 engine angle, along with full suspension travel on stock shock
Fattys have already been done and sold for a while too
Ill pay you to install one on my Yamaha vino 125cc
Do you have the photo of Honda today style?
I have one question why? I mean does it do anything for handling or is it purely for show?
not sure if i am a huge fan of a stretch on a metropolitan. just looks weird with the wheel not in the wheel arch thats part of the body panel
i didn't read all the comments to find out is this modification for aesthetics or can i use this for installing a bigger engine and when will you have more of those kits available
if you mean the china engines that will need its own custom mount made to fit it. this just fits the stock engine
I have a scooter 150cc I want to do that but scooter tolerate weight of 2 people and put strecht tire bigger than normal and use back suspension for a car thanks
i just bought a '02 metropolitan. i want to lower it without stretching it. stock but lowered... can you help me out.. i cant find any aftermarket suspension for a met.
+DK EVOLUTION you can chop the front forks to lower it up front, take out the spring to lower the rear. thats about all you can do stock
Can i just buy and use your suspension adapters so i can fit a ruckus aftermarket lowering suspension? Thank you again sir.
is a ruckus swing arm required for the stretch kit you sell ?
no
but you will need longer rear brake line, using the ruckus rear brake line will work
People usually use the ruckus swingarm because the ruckus has a slightly wider rear wheel and more tire combinations because of the longer swingarm
where the met wheel is very skinny and cant use anything larger because of the short swingarm
Also using ruck swingarm you dont have to shave the plastic fender area to clear the wheel and you get full travel of the shock absorber with the attachment I include for the rear shock
I never tested that on a met swingarm
and most likely will need to shave the plastic rear fender area as the tire could hit
Just something else to think about
I wanted to have the use of the rear shock
You can always go hard tail with the met swingarm then no risk of the wheel tearing up the plastics
But its a good ride with suspension
Look up my username on instagram I have many pics of my met
What size is the rear tire?
Are they still available?
Can you stretch a the newer mets? like a 2015?
I would need the bike here to make a mount as its different. I have no access to one. It should be possible to do it though
how much is your shock mounts kits? and how can i purchase them? thx
Do you still check these comments?
is this kit compatible with the 2013? also, where can i buy it? is the fatty ready yet?
2013, no totally different setup
buy regular stretch on ebay
fatty kit available on special request so thats not posted on ebay
mikegigabyte where are pics of the fatty kit and whats the price?
Can i use this kit on my peugeot sc metropolis?
Is there a benefit to extending the rear?
No, but heck it looks good
can ii use your kit to my sym mio 50 cc?
Where can I get those plates frame
Do you sell a stretch kit for Honda scoopy?

mikegigabyte
I know. i looked at it. I was just wondering if its the full kit or if theres other stuff i have to buy. im new to this stuff and just trying to get familiarized with it. Thanks.

If you only cut 1/3 of the stabilizer bar off and leave the left side peace on it fits in to the stock mount stop pocket and there is no need for your vertical hangers...

for the rear shock mount
its easy enough to make your own shock extension with flat plates and bolt it on
many have done this, you dont need to buy a $60 eye to eye extension and a ruckus shock
you can also buy 1x1 square tubing and make a hard tail mount to get the exact stance you want too, dont need to use suspension in the rear but I like a softer ride
You can also modify that stretch to install a fatty rear wheel too, but then you will need to make a offset rear shock mount for sure
you are good at to installing motor
are you still making and selling these kits? I'm very interested in getting one for my 04 met.
unfortunately he was found dead
would this work on a bms federal 50
what is that some clone scooter
only if the engine has the same exact mounts as this honda engine
most likely not
yea ill have to look at one with mine but would love to do this
Timothy Hebert you could just extend the engine mount back to stretch it
but the main problem is your stuck with your tiny rear tire
these honda bikes the swingarm can come off and install a longer one
which allows a taller tire to be put on
also I was able to add a 7 inch wide rear wheel on these bikes now too which we call a fatty rear
Im going to see if I can add the fatty picture on this video or I may make another video showing it
since I sell the stretch I also sell the parts to install the fatty wheel now too
can u make a kit for my 2016 metropolitan.
no, I don't have access to one and they are different
I have a genuine buddy scooter it has a 50cc gy6 motor would something like this work on that?
What size ur tube
I like that you stretched the metro it was my first time seeing it but this was a sloppy installation.
+Micscience well make a video of your own install and lets see how you do it better
Micscience ร
