kz650 (1981) Swingarm help was created by Aumriff
Can anyone help me with a swingarm problem?I have a 1981 Z650F2 and want to either extend the swing arm keeping the stock wheel and sprockets or add a donor swingarm with a matching pivot point width/spindle size to take a larger width of tyre.

If i go with option 1 all i can think off is cutting the stock arm, adding tapered slugs into the tube and rewelding.

Option 2 is harder to think about as I don't know what other make/model of bike swingarm are the same size (228mm).

Any help/advice or links would be greatly appreciated.

Look for a 80-83 gs1100e aluminum arm. There are a couple of guys on here that have put them on 650's.
