hey guys just wondering what swing arms were being used in swaps, what swingers are the EASIEST fit and what swing arms are the best? im looking for a pretty easy swap for a 810 street bike build and i can probably get my hands on just about ANY swinger out there at a MC junkyard near me

thanks in advance!

1979 kz659 sr- new acquisition NEXT project GONE

Both 650s combined to make one great bike! with a new powerplant

it is a 79 frame, 78 front end, both 78 wheels and brakes, 78 body work and a 80' 750-4 motor with gpz 750 cams and a kerker and...

The BEST swingarm set up is probably not an easy bolt in.

The late gsxr swingarm are easy to swap and the really modernize your rear suspension.

the only hurdle would be the mono-shock mount and linkage

if the extent of your fab skills are short it could get pricey
