i cut the stock 50 swingarm spacer plate off that has the brake tab on it and welded it to the 70 swingarm after i ground down the 70 brake tab
best way to to it as you get correct spacing and brake tab in correct place and it looks stock

lmao thats y u dont have brakes? wow not judging u but I couldnt rock a bike that was incomplete or not 100% y not just weld a lil piece of square stock and call it a day? it would cost like 20-30 bucks @ ur local muffler shop, if u dont have the tools.

You miss understand, i can run a rear brake with my set up! i choose not to because i always use to hit the rear brake mostly when landing off jumps
my 70 swingarm has the brake tab and correct spacing
if you look at the stock 50 swingarm there is a plate about 5mm think that the brake tab is welded too, i cut that off and welded it to the 70 swingarm, even though i dont run a rear brake i wanted it to be correct

LongMooie · 10-07-2009, 05:35 PM

i just shot a photo so you can see what im talking about,
the 70 swingarm does not have the spacer plate like the 50 swingarm
seeing as your not running a 70 rear hub your gonna be 5mm out so i cut the spacer off the 50 swingarm and welded it to the 70 swingarm the brake tab is welded too the plate

35mastr · 10-07-2009, 05:50 PM

It also looks factory.

Are you still using the stock frame. Sucker looks tall.

Whats the seat height around the nut area?

traut811 · 10-07-2009, 07:57 PM

PitRacerVince · 10-07-2009, 10:54 PM

they feel nice, the first set i rode didnt compare to my stratos SR6 forks but the speed fork isnt the race set up its more for hitting jumps but theres no reason why you cant race with them they are good but they are on the shorter side so there great for stock mod bikes
