extending the swingarm?

i am into drag racing here in panama city, fl.. i got my bike saturday and then went to the track on sunday. it is a 1/8 mile track, and managed to get a 7.6 @ 98mph wheelie 1st and 2nd gear.. my bike has yoshimura pipes and the rear sprocket is a 43, not sure on the front one..

has anyone extended the rear swingarm and or lowered the bike.. i have a problem trying to keep the front wheel down on the ground and not being able to use all the WOT power of the bike..

want to lower it and extend it if lowering doesn't help.. thanks, guys

Give these guys a call, they quoted me about 500.00 for extensions, brake line and to lengthen chain. You could probably save some cash and do the work yourself. Extensions only are just under 300.00. Located in Daytona

Only behind my truck,
Haven't tried it yet.
Prostar Nationals are next month in Gainsville, I went last year, it was pretty cool.
