swingarm swap
« on: June 03, 2008, 10:22:29 AM »
saw the start of a interesting swing arm swap. a guy took a rockster swing arm and had it mounted in a r75 frame! i dont know about the drive line, makes me wonder if the swingarms from some of the other models would fit kind of the same.

for some of you who like to long ride a longer wheel base would help some??

If somebody wanted a slightly longer WB I suppose they could just use the swingarm and associated bits (subframe, rear fender, etc.)  from a comparable vintage R100.
