I have just purchased a second 1990 Honda VFR750. This is a parts bike and will never be put back on the road. I purchased it mainly for the rear wheel. The 8 spoke VFR750 wheel is highly sought after, extremely difficult to fi d and sell for $150.00 more than I paid for the parts bike.
The plan is to strip it of usable parts for my running VFR and scrap what remains. Contemplating which parts I want, I am thinking about removing the single sided swing arm to investigate what can be done to install it on Casper.

Go for it!
As I was reading - I thought of that exact picture to post.
I like how cleanly done that conversion looks.
Many years ago, I recall reading about a bloke in UK or Germany who installed a single sided swinger on his FJ and ended up removing it.
He mentioned that the swinger turned the FJ's handling "Evil" something about the FJ's frame not able to take the asymmetrical load imposed by the swinger.
You may want to visit the UK FJ forum and ask the question.
Cheers

Interesting... the Honda it came off of seems to share the same "perimeter frame" geometry...
