The third appears to be stock swing arm length. It's a optical illusion when u lower the seat rails down in many cases.
 
Cool, that third looks stock to me but I see now how the hub and tie bar are all the way forward. I've been asked many times how many inches my swing arms are extended on bikes I built and none ever were. The drop seat does makem look longer.
 
The third bike is called "Tidy Whitey" and has a 2" stretch with a full length piece of bar stock along the bottom of the swingarm. And he fabbed a new seat loop to mount the bagger shocks. I inquired about it with the owner because those mods are almost EXACTLY what I want to do on my '75. His recommendation if he were to do it again was to contact Joe Wiseguy. That's my plan, Stan...

Oh man is that Enforcer UUUUUUUUUUUUUUggggggggggggly
I hate to speak negatively about another person's hard work but it definitely is not what I would consider great looking. Looks like they did a really nice job with the build and in particular the attention to detail, however not my style at all.
