Since the swingarm does not have pieces welded on it to accommodate the chain guard or rear brake line what do you all suggest for mounting.
Also, I wish to strip and repaint the calipers. Powdercoating or sprayed? Maybe even gun kote, alothough I doubt my wife would see eye to eye with me on the use of her oven.

I had the same issue with my swingarm and was able to install some really nice inserts for the chainguard. I'll see if I can dig up some pics and info...it's been a while!

OK, found some pics and looked up the info. The nuts are cheap but the tool was about $30. Still better than welding on my new chrome swing arm. Depending on your specific application, you might need different sizes but this will give you a good start if you decide to go this route:

In my mind I was thinking of Sime kind of clamp or ... that's really helpful. 79 LTD B3 80 LTD B4 1075 kit JE Pistons .410 cam grind, Bassani, 31 keihin CR Specials... 1980 Z1R, 2002 ZRX1200, 2003 ZRX1200

Don't use the black Gun Kote in an oven you cook food in. it has a small amount of lead in it.
