What's that swingarm from? How about the shocks?

For the foam what you need to look for is called "Rebond Foam". Try to find it at fabric stores and stuff. It comes in a few densities. 8lb density is stiff, but when you sit on it it will conform to your pooper. :thumbup:

Those shocks look very much like ZRX shocks. Im looking at maybe getting a set for my bike. A tad longer, but a very nice upgrade from stock.... Wayne

Swingarm is from a TL1000, shocks are old Paioli's which are similar to Marzocchi shocks. I am not sure if they are any good, I have not rode the bike with them on.

Do you have anymore pics? What year swingarm? How did you install it?

Its off a 1998 TL1000s, the r model has a brace on the arm.

Its was approx. the same length as orig. arm.
The arm width at the pivot was slightly smaller than orig. I used the TL1000 bearing and made a bush so it fitted the smaller Zed axle. I got spacers made for both sides of the arm.

Getting the R1 6" rim alignment and chain clearance took most of the time.
