Great mod, now you must find the front wheel to make them look the same, guess that you had to change the rear spring.

V's,

Was this a direct bolt on? How much did you have to mod the bike to get it on? Looks very nice.

kilgoretrout -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/16/2008 4:46:49 PM)

That is neat looking. Makes you look twice, that's for sure.
I've always liked the look of the VFR's, too.

weekendrider -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/16/2008 5:40:35 PM)

how does it ride with pod air cleaners. do you lose low down power.

zach1colo -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/30/2008 9:35:31 AM)

ok HOTSWAP>> this was a fairly easy mod only fabrication i needed to do was notch the crossmwmber where old cbr shock went fab up an upper shock moutn and modify the lower link cuz the whole shock sits offset bout 3/4 inch... and then i had to have 2 bushings made i had a machinest do it at my work but any shop could do these fairly easy and reletively cheap... if you guys need spec on any of this stuff or more detail hit me up....

zach1colo -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/30/2008 9:38:57 AM)

WEEKENDRIDER>>>> it rides ok with the pods it seems to bog just a little down low but im still messing with jetting on the carbs .....


Now Its time for the buell firebolt front fairing and cbr 1000rr tail section wohoo

zach1colo -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/30/2008 9:42:26 AM)

does anyone know if the f2 wheel willl work or how much would be required to make it fit

kilgoretrout -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/30/2008 11:54:43 AM)

Speaking of VFR's, Im' thinking about picking one up from a buddy of mine. Its' a 95 with like 35k on it. He's owned it since new, and he's meticulous about maintenance and such. Hopefully he'll come back with a good price. Still keeping the F'er, though.. [:D]

BROOKLYN -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/30/2008 5:31:30 PM)

weekendrider -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (5/31/2008 4:38:01 AM)

Can you show me a photo of the air cleaners under the tank

CosmoBob -> RE: got the vfr swingarm on (6/3/2008 1:12:54 AM)
