    swing arm swap

    in Air Cooled

    Posted

    Personal opinion; stay away from the Bandit arm. Way too short.

    Find GSXR 1100L/M arm and go with that. Top and bottom mounts will need welding, as per suggestion above. Swap the bushings from the EF-arm into the GSXR arm to save yourself time, money and a headache.

    Makes it go round corners as well :pimp:

    @Rene EFE has just put a bigger rear wheel in and change the front on his gsxf in the projects section ;)

    I have 

    Complete frontend swap, needs reworking of the lockstops and there is 0 chance you can fit the stock ignitionswitch to a Slingy top yoke. I just ziptied it out the way. I wanted to run the stock GSXR clipons but they are WAY too close to the fairing, so went for superbikebars in the end. 
     

    Rear wheel is pretty much a straight swap; Slingshot caliperhanger with some adjustment to fit, redo the torquearm as mentioned above and that’s it. 

     

    It’s very low but I haven’t ground anything out yet, but then I haven’t really been trying. It’s perfect for fast touring, which is why I built it.

    YSS Shocks, anyone used them?

    in Air Cooled

    I had a Teapot YSS on my EFE, because I was (and now again am) running a shock from that.

    It was brandnew but the rebound adjuster already had play in it, it felt like a bicyclepump and the bike sat about an inch lower with the preload wound right up.

    Took it off within a week and sold it on.
