Here's my views though I technically no longer have an 84:

If the frame is still gloss black:

Gloss Black Swingarm
+2 inches
Green Calipers
Chromed Axle
Green Shock Spring
Green Hubs

Mine had a polished motor, so I would go with polished.

:-D

I'd go with gloss black on the swingarm....I'd extend it 4 inches
6 might be a little more than you want....making it longer also effects your turning radius. I wouldnt chrome your axle, waste of money. Dirt and crap is just gonna rough up the chrome. Just clean the stocker up real nice on a wire wheel. For the shock..personally I'd just run a shockwear over the shock :-P

Jeb, you should see my 86 ATC!!
show polished cylinder & head, +10 swingarm, huge drag pipe YEEHAW!
taking the frame to a friends this weekend for powdercoating. Already polished my top tree and bar clamps!!!
