SWINGARM
26 Oct 2006 13:40
Scored, an aluminum box swingarm on e-bay for 26.00 I was told it was from an early GSX? It came off a 1975 z1b(which is my bike) Ill try to post pics for identification. There are two brackets on both sides bottom back, Caliper mount? anyone who knows gs's please tell me the conversion. I already know I need eye to clevis shocks. What kind of rim should I go for. My bike has lesters on now, I kinda like the classic look, but I know getting the lester widened is big bucks. my bike is in the gallery, The Atomic orange one.
:evil: I cant wait to do the conversion.

Keeping the lesters is not a problem but a nice wide swingarm with skinny tires looks goofy. The whole reason for doing the conversion is to get more rubber on the tarmac. I will probably ues spacers for the time being and look goofy for now:P
