A while ago there was a swingarm for sale on here that had an R1 brace grafted onto it. It was all polished up with an underslung caliper.If i remember correctly it was bought and fitted but corroded badly so ended up getting powder coated black. I am trying to find out what caliper bracket was used to move the caliper under the arm. This is a pic of the offending item.



Or if anyone can i.d that caliper bracket that would be good. Thanx

It look's abit like a early blade bracket, but the hole in the middle is bigger . . or has been made bigger ??

Do you want to sell it??????????????

Cannot be arsed doing one got so many things half done would be easier just to buy one done.

If you ever decide to sell it let me know first please.

And have you got any pics of it on ??????????????

I enquired about bracing mine last year at metmacheck in Alfreton £175, brace fitted and full polish.Unfortunately Silver was assasinated before i could have it done.

Bloody typical that ebay it is then

It looks a little different now as I stripped it, flushed all the welds, had the few random holes filled and then re-powdered a bit thicker as it was thin in places. I will try and put a pic of it in black on here as soon as I take one in the next day or so. I still have the one I replaced at work if you are still looking for one to modify.

Let me know what you want for it and i will see what i can do thanks.

Can't see no reason why you can't have it for postage only... has to be the done thing to help someone out if I can and to be honest it's only just sitting there after the swap.

Let me know where you want it sent.
