I think Raydog needs to have one of these power coated for the rear end of his superbyke.

Yikes! That's a lot of Yen! BTW, I am replacing the swingarm but I only spent a paltry $1400 bucks on one I designed (not real design, like engineering but general specs to a builder). As incredible as your $3500 exmple is Ken, I like mine because it's lower bracket allows all the Busa innards to be exposed to the viewer (rear shock, etc.), also, I like when you can look at a bike and see through to the other side, just a styling profile I enjoy....and this unit I'm puting on really opens up the view. I'd already have it on but it's so dam cold in the garage lately!

I think was Jay Leno who said, "never trust a motorcycle you can't spit through".
