Swingarm Conversion Q's - Function or Looks

krazyrider,
i am glad that you are excited about your project.hopefully you can keep your momentum up and blow through this bike and get on the road.
thanks for letting me help with a key part of your project.
i can't wait to see how it turns out.
keep us posted,

Leon, can you brace a stock KZ900A4 [drum brake] swingarm and still keep the center stand and fender?

mtbspeedfreak,

let me look one over this evening with an eye towards that and i will get back with you.
i don't think the fender would be a problem,but the centerstand will take some consideration.
i'll let you know,

Haha, I tried that as soon as I first noticed it. Unfortunately, it doesn't work with my non-LTD bike, nor my Z1. The main reason I keep it, (it's a pain most of the time and it looks dorky) is so that I can easily lube my chain when I'm 500 miles in the middle of bumf*ck and have another 500 miles to get home.
