I'll try that wraith thanks! And okay Tony, would you know where I could get some fabricated?
-
Does anybody know what bearings I can use to make my gsx1100 katana swinging arm fit my gsx 750? Please, all help is greatly appreciated!

Just red this post made for a good read! Like the progress so far. Wish I was capable of all this engineering
how did you apply two plugs per cylinder smithy09?

Yeah the mot. Is a pain however I work at a testing station and we do bikes too so all good really
There's more than one way to string a cat. And well that sounds like a regimental order however I suppose itll keep more original and restored bikes on the road which is a good thing. But overall the mot has gotten worse, being a tester myself it's even a pain just to keep my testing licence year by year and really we're doing a job on behalf of the government

I'm a black n blue kinda guy
And yeah might have to save up for some better shocks though unfortunately these projects aren't cheap and kids are more expensive
and yeah the srad swinging arm took some fabrication but I didn't wanna touch the frame because then I'd have to register it n have it inspected by the proper authority where as this way I haven't made any major frame alterations thus meaning I can register it as classic (once I've had it mot'd) from there forth it'll be tax free and no more testing involved

Gotta be honest though Tony, as much as I love blue, I quite like yours in the orange livery

Hope so, she's had a fresh paint job with new sticker set and the seat recovered so should look like new girl

Well I've bought myself a gsx1100 swinging arm now. And okay in sure I can get hold of some tubing for a sleeve. Just can't wait for her to be finished! Only had her since June 19. But this is the arm I've bought...

Where it had been narrowed to fit the frame just wasn't strong enough

Oh I see
and I wanted an ally one just for the aesthetics but it's turned into a bit of a dangerous escapade. So I think I'll take the advice from people who have obviously been there n done it with the gsx1100 arm I thought it looked cool with that arm and the busa rear wheel but just not safe at all -
Sweet thanks Joseph and the rest of you guys!

I found this on Eblag, its listed for a gsxr1100 katana, does it look like the one?
-
Yes the arm that's in that pic is the srad but the frame clearance called for modification, but looking at it and given advice from someone with experience he said it wasn't safe so not going to use that. That bandit 1200 arm looks like a nice easy one. But thank you guys for the answers it's much appreciated

To anyone and everyone please can I have advice. I have a 1981 gsx 750 and a bandit 600 wheel with a 160 tyre on it, what swinging arm can I use to fit this but still keep the twin shock setup? The swinging arm on the picture isn't suitable, I've done away with that. Thank you in advance for any help.
