H1 Swingarm

Post by Jason »

My bike has a braced swingarm, and on the chain run side is a cut out T piece, bolted back to the bracing with a tapped hole in the centre. I can only assume as my bike didnt have a hugger that the tapped hole is for a hugger mounting bolt.........but what is the T piece for????

I have never seen anything like it before and at first thought it had been butchered but looking at photos of other bikes on here they all seem to have it.

Any help appreciated

Cheers :smt003

i think thats so you can take the swingarm off without splitting the chain

How desperate are you for one? I only ask as I have a spare, but it's in Norfolk where I work and I live inSouth Wales! I'm back in work after Easter Monday and can post one out to you.
PM me your details if you're interested and can wait the two weeks.
