New swingarm! Why?

Re: Finally all done. (Nice mod)
 
Well three reasons... First because the origional one had a crack in it, been needing to do it for a while.

Second, because I can :p

Third because it was cheap!

Yes wideboy it came like that. :)


Hovis, good spot, I forgot about that... ha ha but that is a difference.

Just noticed the back wheel needs a damn good clean! bah

To be honest I think this is a "bling only" mod, I'd rather spend my money on petrol.
But I have to say it looks the dogs danglies :smt118 I want one!

Where did you get the swinger from? Any problems with fitting it?
Idiot question, do you have to cut the chain to fit it?

Ebay. Was £65 delivered. There are a couple of little marks but tbh for the monies I cant grumble! Keep an eye out and there will be one for you im sure.

Fairly easy change. Straight swap so its as hard as removing and re fitting. Can take some time as its a little fiddley. It is quite compact in there. Yes I had to brake the chain. To get the same one to fit I had to put a 15tooth front sprocket on as it was too short, this swing arm is about 5mm longer ha ha. No biggie though as I wanted to go back to shorter gearing anyway. :)

I got a spare chain as well now, just incase the old one still wouldn't go back on with the 15 tooth front...
