Default RR swinger on a F4 Help





I know there is already a thread on doing a rr swing arm on a F4, but instead of using the stock rr swing arm I want to cut where the axle goes onto the swinger out and weld the back half of the F4 swinger on it extending it about 7 inches or so but I need to see if any one will measure the chunk of aluminum where the axle and chain tensioner is welded to the wing arm just to see if the F4 swinger will fit.... Ill show you a pic so you will have a better idea of what Im talking about... the red lines will be what I need measured. I know this is a newer rr swinger but I need the measurments off of a 03/04 swinger much help appreciated thanks.... I need you rr guys to help. this is the only thing holding up my project

thanks for your help!!!|

Why? Just why? A 600 doesnt need extended for traction, and even for drag racing 6 - 7" is overkill.

lol. kk. To answer your question, yes I think the part welded into the swingarm that holds the adjusters n axle are the same size except for the opening for the axle itself (its a larger diameter)

OK but in cutting that out, I will be welding in the back half of a F4 swing arm. From the looks of it I think they will fit great but there is that question in the back of my head, there's not any body in south east Missouri that has a 03/04 rr let a lone a Honda rocket they all ride yamadogs and cowy's....or else I would steel a measurement from one of them but I am really relying on you guys..

This is what I will be sticking on the back of the RR swinger...from the red line back.

the rr tubing on its swingarm is more rectangular when compared to the F4/i swingarm which is rounded a lil on the outer surface in comparison. Should be able to get some tubing to match fairly easy tho.

Why don't you just put the RR swingarm on as it is then buy a extension kit designed for the RR?

Yeah is it like 1.5 x 3.75". I think I can just notch the f4 swinger and slide it over the axle mount then just weld it there Im still not for sure, I know I want to use the axle mount and brake caliper mounts off the F4 so I dont have to use rr parts... might just be easier but its not custom...LOL...

cuz extensions look cheap n like shyt.

n dirt that may work but will look like shyt for a show bike, n in general. If its all you have to work with tho it will work, just look like it was done in some rednecks backyard.
