Has anyone done a single side swingarm conversion on a z1000j
If so which swing arm did they use and did it turn out a good or bad conversion.

Had this project for a number of years now, didn't do the conversion myself, but it sits well...thinking about selling it

mine was a one-off swingarm/hub/wheel from FCW in Germany so not a really good example.

I've see VFR Hodnas, Ducati and Triumph ones fitted though.

Trick is to get the chain in line !
