Default VFR Swingarm on 01 SV

I was wondering if anyone has put a VFR swingarm on their 01 SV650S? Any suggestions or tips on installation?

Thanks!

Honda VFR arm, from what I hear the late nineties 750 arm is best.



Looks like a ducati arm or maybe VFR arm with ducati wheel.....


Another Duke rear wheel, the story about this bike is also on www.svrider.com

Ah brilliant, it's the orange nekkid Speed Twin. I love that bike, it's so black, yet also so ORANGE! Nicest nekkid SV I've ever seen, I think, even if the endcans look like fairy liquid bottles.

Burner,

how to dig out more info about the bikes - I am in love with the first one you pasted, but got lost on svrider's page...

Is there discription, how they did it?

That bike hasn't got a license plate, any idea, would it be legal?!

Thanks!

I've a question. What front forks are these



To keep the same SV front wheel, discs and brakes?
I have to get some upside down forks within the next month so am starting to research now. Would rather replace the forks then the wheel et all.

Motomorphic does a lot of single sided swingarm conversions on SV's, they are based out of California. The orange SV pictured above is one of their creations:

Here's their site:

However, it looks like they have ceased business.
