Swing arm identification help

24 Sep 2010 10:38

Could someone help me identify the swing arm on me racebike!
I have fitted a FZR750 front end on this morning. Perfect fit, no adjustments required. I may try and source an 18 inch front wheel instead of the 17 fitted.
Now looking at converting the back wheel. Can anyone help please.

Looks like a JMC arm to me. They are based in England. Actually now that I think about it, JMC doesn't use eccentric cam axle adjusters. Hmmmmm?

Yes, JMC does use eccentric adjusters. Have a look!
