I was watching it, but the right arm on that thing looked like it had a massive dent in it, figured I'd take a pass since I had no way to fix it

I have the drawings if you need them. The races in the swing arm pivot are not stock. I got them from a bearing supplier and made the spacers to fit them.

The swingarm on ebay does not have the chain adjusters.

That "dent" is supposed to be there. It is for clearance of the expansion chamber of the exhaust. It is a 2-stroke.

I'd hit google image search and hunted for pictures of RGV's to look at their swingarms and never saw anything -- obviously, because it was hidden behind the exhaust.  Either way, I didn't want to take a chance  :dunno:

hope the rope burns are healing :P

anyway, there is a targa belly pan on eBay atm that I have a bid in on - dgyver, did you get that other belly pan to use for a mold?  If not, I'd be willing to donate this one (assuming I win the auction).  It's going to need some "adjustments", looks like it's made specifically to fit the stock exhaust, V&H headers might not fit it without some trimming

No bondage was involved, this time.  ;)

Jazzzz...no I did not get the factory belly pan. I still have the lower that I made to work from. I was hoping I could get it cheap enough instead of doing more work.
