Default Single sided swing arm

I was thinking of getting a single sided wing arm off of a 93 model vfr 750 and i was wondering if anyone has ever done this. They look like they would bolt up but you would probably have to fab a bracket on the frame to support he shock from the vfr 750. If anyone has input on knowing about this that would help thanks.

The first thing you're going to have to do is spend some time making measurements. The first measurement you need to make is the width of the F2 swingarm where it meets the frame. Based on this measurement, you can choose what arm to use.

VFR Pivot Widths:
Honda VFR750 (1990-93) - 242mm
Honda VFR750 (1994-97) - 227mm

You'll need to select whichever swingarm requires the least amount of modification to make it fit.

Once that's done, and you have the complete swingarm, you'll be in better shape to figure out the shock linkage.
