900ie swingarm
 
Been offered an aluminum swing arm from a 900ie.

Will this fit a 600 monster? All the talk I can see is on 851/888 swingarms so does that mean I'm out of luck?

Hi,

I'd be interested in a Alloy i.e. swingarm if its available.

Cheers - Frank

IMO it will give a much better advantage next year rather than saving a few grams in weight.

point taken. Trying to get ready for Brands on Wednesday... if I can replace all of Bradder's cable ties with structural materials (metal for instance) in time ;) :lol:

bradders 06-Nov-2011 14:01

Trackdays all the way..... but if you are after saving weight, I seem to remember the weight saving was in the region of 2-3kg for this particular swap, so pretty good saving for the cost.
