Default Swingarm Assortment - 4 for $100

Looks like my bike building days are going to be on hold for a little while. I've got years of collected parts in the garage, but right now I need the cash and space more than the parts. Good opportunity for some of you guys doing builds to pick up some good cheap parts!

Here I have an assortment of swingarms:

one 1997-1998 Honda CBR F3 arm
one 1994-2000 Kawi ZX-6 arm
one 1998 GSX-R 600 arm
one mystery arm I believe to be from a 90's Yamaha YZF

$40 each or all four for $100

I live in Portsmouth and work at the beach, you can pick up at my home or office.

I have a GS500 swingarm with an adjustable gixxer shock and caliper you can have for 30 bucks.

I also have a Bandit rear wheel (4" wide vs. your 3.5" wide GS wheel) you can have for $100. I had a custom aluminum spacer machined to put the Bandit wheel on my GS (allows you to fit up to a 160 rear tire...though I'd recommend sticking with a 150). I can probably dig up the spacer and give it to you with the wheel. I also have a gixxer brake arm to go with it that will clear the wider tire (stock one won't). The wheel comes with a rotor and bearings too. I have some other GS stuff if you're looking.

FWIW, I can measure the width of the GS swinger's pivot vs. these others if you want. The gixxer pivot axle is too thick for the GS frame, but the other three look close, one of those might work.

I have a 3 car garage stuffed to the gills with car and bike shit. What size steering stem does your SV have? I have a complete '99 gixxer 600 front end (conventional) with a custom machined GS500 steering stem and a busa USD front end with a custom machined early Yamaha steering stem. I also have miscellaneous other stems that might work depending on the size of yours.

No SV parts, but I do have a bunch of miscellaneous dog bones. If your boy wants to bring one of his to the house to compare I may have something he can use.

The busa forks are USD chappe. Not complete though...forks, triples and axle, you'd need brakes and a wheel/tire.

Sorry hatch, no ZX parts.
