or if that wont work could you please advise my options for swingarms

i would just like to fit a 180/55r17 rear tire & have proper chain adjusters that dont spin round everytime i try to losen the wheel nut

single sided would b gr8 but pennies are short have been lookin @ a stolen recovered gsxr750 k4 as my mate wants the engine & i would like the forks/ rear shock.

thanks again tom

swingarm changes are a mare on the sv ,first and foremost the rear shock is offset to the left on a sv (the gsxr one i had was centre mounted) also the single sided can be done (sv rider has a few) but iirc they used rc30 rear swingarms which took a little bit of modding (and they are as rare as flying rocking horse poo)
tbh ethier just buy a aftermarket job thats been designed for the sv or stick with what ya got
hth

ohh and if your chain adjuster spin round get a mallet on the flat bottom of them and bend them up a bit this holds them tight then and they dont spin round

Swingarm will be a lot of work. Get the whole front end if you can though.
