    Swingarm

    I have used an 1150 arm before but on this project I used a Katana 750 arm because it was made out of steel and I could weld and cut it easy. I extended it 7" inches then made mounts for a 1996 Kaw ZX11 shock. The stock 5.5 GSXR wheel will fit right in these swingarms. I did all the work myself with some simple tools and a wire welder. Hope this helps.

          Swingarm

          Since this bike was for the track it only uses the shock. I welded a mount and brace right behind the gas tank mount. I spaced the shock back a bit to allow for the swingarm length. It really works well. I did have to space the 530 front sprocket out some.
