Thats the one. Thanks for the quick reply. I picked up the swingarm last night on ebay for .99cents. Good thing is they are only an hour away and I will go pick it up to save me the $25 shipping fee.

I couldnt believe it. Before I went to bed last night it had like 3 hours to go and I put in a bid of $5 bucks and I woke up this morning to 4 emails saying I won for .99cents. What a way to start off my morning.

Good find. Just tell here that you had always planned on doing the switch but just never found the parts for the right price. Or something is broken so you are making it stronger. Or there's always the "but it was on sale so I saved a ton of money" line.

You are more than welcome to come over and check it out. Unfortunatly, I'm still working on some small items that has prevented me from riding yet. I'm hoping this weekend will allow me to crank it up at least but I don't forsee going done anything but the neighborhood road.

Send me a PM and I'll get you directions.

Hey Cad600, sorry I couldnt make it out yesterday. Hope you got some work done on your bike and closer to riding it.

Mszilves finished his yzf swap and used a JT sprocket that I went ahead and ordered today. Getting closer!
