that swingarm is a double clubfoot that i think is 8" over one of best freinds on the planet built the frame and swingarm for me at different times the frame was built 13 years ago and the swingarm and wheele bars and struts were built about 8 years ago origanally for a freind of mines gs 1428 suzi but i bought it from him after he decided he was going to a car tire set-up and harry did all his work as well so the answer to your guestion is harry kopijewski built it i have one other frame that he did for me for a street bike shoot-out type bike and that was the last frame he did so i'll own these bikes for the rest of my life i'll never sell anything that he built we lost him about 2 years ago to stomach cancer and the world is sadder with out him he was a great fabricator and even better friend we towed together raced each other watched each others backs when stuff went wrong and i miss him every day so i get a real good feeling when ever i look at that bike, if i quit racing tomorrow i'll always own that bike. sorry about the long drawn out answer but it felt good to remember my friend and he would be happy to know someone else enjoyed his work.
