A extended swingarm does not lower the bike. You have to purchase lowering links to do that.
A longer wheelbase effectively changes your turn angle...but puts more of the weight of the bike towards the front, and not to the rear wheel....keeping the front end on the ground like EGlovr said.
Fyi I'm stretched with a 4"-6" extension block. Not a full swingarm. Full extended swingarms are only neccesary at anything over 9" inches.
