@@motonewengland603 Thanks bro

@@gillesderais1293 it’s still getting worked on life gets in the way sometimes and this year was very hectic and expensive, but I was just working on some suspension components this week, hopefully start devoting more time to it again in very near future

@@motonewengland603 thanks for the reply. i know the struggle. i have a 76 cb750 that ive had apart for years now. i like where you are going with yours.

@@Secucoreinc it will be a mix of bolts and welding. Still a work in progress, but the plan is to weld on bushing to the frame and weld a mounting plate to the frame under the seat so the R1 shock can mount there.

@@Spydr6684 definitely would have been easier to do that. But I’m impatient, a bit cheap and had these parts haha.

@@motonewengland603 Understandable, I honestly would be the same way. It’s much easier as an outsider to make these observations.

@@teurpi28 I wouldnt drill the frame as that’s going to carry part of the stress and I’m not sure how much it would weaken it. I would sleeve your original bolt. Measure the length you need and use some chrome moly tube. Either get the correct inside diameter (16mm) or get as close as you can to the 16mm depending what’s offered and use a lathe and drill the tubing out to 16mm. and then turn the outside of the tube down to 20mm.

@@BigDogHDSPB I’m not ready to give it up yet but there is a sport tourer coming in the near future.

@@motonewengland603 yeah that’ll work 👍there’s great models from Kawasaki to Suzuki.

VFR swing arms vary a bit. This one is from a 1993 model. If I could do it again I’d go with a later 90s model as they change the mounting system for the rear shock and it would have been easier to convert.

Thanks mate! I have keep this in my mind! 😊

lol then I do not recommend a toce system for you.

Congratulations man! Your names was picked on the live stream. Shoot me an email and [email protected] and I’ll ship it out to you asap.

1993 Honda VFR 750

It’s more on the front fairing just below the windscreen so it’s fairly rigid, I haven’t had any issues with the stabilization on. As for the mount I’m testing it this week.

My normal riding jacket snaps down to a belt. Works great.

Honestly. It was about 5 over. I don’t shit where I eat.

You are absolutely right. It’s funny I know these things but you get try talking about it on the fly and it goes out the window. I apologize for the mistakes.

​@motonewengland603 no apologies needed! But thanks 🤙🏽

Thank you I thought so too. I was really happy with how it turned out.

That’s fantastic! Good luck!

Should be riding by the end of the month.

Thank you, I was definitely happy. I didn’t look all that close because that rim is not the one that’s going to go on it. That one happened to come with the front end. I have a matched VFR rim for the front, but I appreciate the keen eye.

Thank you. It’s getting there.

@@motonewengland603 Sure it is 😇

Thanks for the lead! I’ve been emailing them just gotta press this one out to see which one I need to order.

I love the single sided swing arm look.

Eventually it may get updated to an inverted set but i lucked into this front for basically nothing and i was a big update from the 81 OEM set up.

Inverted are inherently stronger, add to that most if not all modern sport bikes use them the technology they are packed with is more advanced. However for this build the telescoping are more than adequate, it’s still a huge improvement from the original equipment.

I read in search he used a 94 swing arm. Apparently 94-97 are the same and seems like they work on 84-85 vf1000f as well which I maybe try for my build

I'd go the older the better. I ended up with an 03 800 and the frame needed some massaging
