Thunderace Swingarm Conversion

[woodcreekpete]

Greetings all!
   I've had these pieces around for a while and I don't think I'm too interested in doing the swap.
   Pretty much everything necessary:
  97 T-Ace swingarm - good shape, no marks.
  Underslung caliper and bracket. Caliper probably needs a rebuild, pads are done. No brakelines.
  T-Ace 5.5" wheel - I stripped it inside and out, polished the lips. Tire will be removed as well as the sprocket (same sprocket as FJ's).
  Axle, spacers, swingarm pivot bolt.
  Chain guard.
  Looking for $225 US for everything.
  A shot in the dark guess at shipping would be around $80-90 US maximum from up here in the Frozen North (Ontario) to pretty much all of Canada or the US. I can get an accurate cost after it's all packed.

     Thanks,   Peter

 Has the swing arm had the required modifications to fit the FJ mounting points?

Nothing's been done to it. Just came out of the T-Ace today.

T ace is shorter than the stock fj swinger isn't it? Would make a stock bike quicker turn in. And easier to wheelie. Kinda fun but. For the 1350 and especially the turbo bike I'm going longer than stock. Older r1 swingers. If I could afford it I would definitely buy it for one of my stock bikes.

Not by much. Here is mine with a 110 link ZVM chain and 18/40 sprockets. Note the index marks.

Is that my old F1R slipon?  If so, that's a truly stunning (and typical) Conlon polish job.  :-)

Edit:  Nope, I now recognize it as the first gen F1.  Move on

Hey David, that picture of those F1's is 10 years old (2009)
I kept popping the rivets out, it seems as our FJ engines pump a lot of air thru them.

My bike has been running your F1R's ever since you were so kind to send them to me.
The 2nd generation Cobra F1R with the band clamp is superior to the rivet design.

Thanks again amigo.
