Question??

Whats up guys...this is actually directed to Mark, but the rest of you might be able to answer it...I just put a 71 tooth on the rear of my gsxr1k, rode it down the street, and the chain seems to slightly rub on the top of my swingarm...did you have to grind yours down at all, or do any kind of modification?
And also, are you using 1st or 2nd?...someone said they thought you used 2nd.

Thanks,

Matt

Re: Question??

Let it grind!!! It wont hurt anything. If you want to you can actually cut that part of the swingarm down.....its pretty much there for a little bit of torsional stability for high speed turns (racing dudes need it). For the average street rider (or any stunter for that matter) it wouldnt make a difference if the whole top part was cut off.
Mark does all his stuff in 2nd....

Re: Question??

I'm gonna do to black and i'm trying not to sale the 750 but i might have too. As far as not riding, i know it's been awhile. I haven't rode hard sence I flip it. The bike is still pretty beat up, I need a front wheel and a dampner mount.

Damper mount????
You mean the lower triple or the damper itself? Either way its an easy fix. I have an extra damper I will give you or we can fabricate a mount.
