does anyone know of a braced swing arm that will fit curvy or who might make one?
Seen a JMC braced swingarm on a curvey.

To be fair, not many previous topics on putting an arm into an SV, on the grounds that it's incredibly expensive and has practically no practical benefits. The JMC website's pretty good, it's got a gallery, price list, etc. You want a super top braced one, everyone does :) Metmachex will do them too. So will Spondon, but not cheap! In fact, just about any bike fabricators would- Steelheart, Izax, etc etc.
I have to admit I was looking at doing one... But eventually saw sense :) It's a hell of a lot of wedge for a cosmetic upgrade. If you do do it, though, have the decency not to do it with a stock SV wheel and brake caliper though! :)

TWF on the SVRider board welded up a brace onto one of his swing arms. It looked great!
If you want to search for it, it was in the thread called 03 motor in 02 frame or something like that...
Look at his pics, a local fabricator would likely do it for "only" ~$200USD.
