no just the tailpiece. Call me crazy but I really like the paint scheme on the icon bike... might head down the white frame road, prob not black and red too though... just toying with the idea



and thanks Leon for rushing me those bushings they are bitchin!! snugged it up nice.. Im not sure if im a fan of the r6 swinger, its a bit too long I think and it gives the bike that stretched look im not crazy about... however I love it at a bunch of angles

would the stance effect the oiling of the motor? its tilted way forward now. and is a 525 or 520 chain much narrower than a 530? its gonna be close against the frame

530 roller width is 3/8" or 12/32"

525 roller width is 5/16" or 10/32" (would add 1/32" clearance on each side)

520 roller width 1/4" or 8/32" (would add 2/32" or 1/16" clearance on each side)

If tolerable, a non-o'ring chain is narrower overall than the same size o'ring chain.

Good Fortune! :)

Although if you angle it more to say 65* degrees then of course it's an issue. Judging from the pic it's not going to hurt the oiling system. I love the stance, great work! :cheer:
