Yeah, I'd also like to see a picture of it on the bike before I'd look any further into it...
Honestly, I'm not a big fan of lattice. Do you have any more factory-looking options?

talked to my local shop about a single sided swingarm, he said it would actualy be heavier than the stock. to hold all the extra weight? what do you think. its an original idea and not too many people have it. none that i know of. i would definetly be interested in buying one. also what else would i have to change? sproket chain brake system???? my e-mail is asmulik@adelphia.net or my # is 561-262-8575 adam thanks for the info

Its actually almost 4 lbs lighter than stock, has the superbike length, and is more rigid both torsionally and longitud.

Anyways.. it rocks...
