Yeah, but show it more, and IMHO it doesn't look much as standard.
A brace helps, but I'm after changing the ends as well, to get a better option re lighter chain adjusters, along with the option for the type of paddock stand lifter sections that extend rearwards behind the rear wheel spindle.

That's gotta make it look more modern.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

So would it be OK to chop the adjuster end of a blade swingarm and weld that on the end or would that weaken it. Maybe it would be better to adapt the other end of a blade swingarm to fit, if that's possible. I want to do something with my swingarm next year.
