Yeah I used to have banners from most manufacturers but they have all gotten torn up. The Honda is the only 1 that has lasted.

Here is a pic of the swingarm brace. It really seemed to stiffen it up quite a bit.

In the previous pic you can actually see my plans for the battery. Not sure of particulars yet but I am using a factory battery out of an R1 which has more CCA than original KZ battery, but is in a much smaller case. I am building a box and mounting it to the bottom side of the swingarm. Hoping the battery can handle the added vibration.
