That looks like its going to be nice. You'll find the change in handling is like night and day with the changes in geometry, much better suspension and less unsprung weight. Your ZX6 swingarm looks very similar to the ZZR1200 I used, but its interesting my shock mount isn't offset. You'ld think they would have kept it as simple and consistent across the model range. Keep posting your progress.



his arm looks alot like my swingarm also. zx12r but my isnt offset either

No it's all gas mig just several passe's and it stay's in my garage so it get's a little rust from condesation I'm not a pro welder but I have welded hitch's on truck's and fram work so it should stay together also I understand that on this frame the metal is thin and old plus the weld's look a little rough but they are in spot's kinda unnoticed I think every thing will work or atleast I hope with all the time and effort I've put in this plus I'm the guinnie pig.
