Honda hawk gt SSSA's are not all that expensive. They are ELF swingarms, shock is a direct mount so nolinkage, you would need to re-spring and re-valve your shock unless you used a shock made for a hawk. They guys at hawkgtforum.com have manufactured kits to mount aprilia, ducati, and vfr wheels to them so you would have wheel choices.

I have one, i was contemplating it but my hawks already have sssa's so i might pas. I really want to fit my f4i swinger to my f3. Anyone want to sell me f4i linkage?

hey said I was getting a quote, not buying one. And this would be a direct bolt on. Might be worth the price for less pain...


And he is a second hand fabricator he made a throttle cable out of a lawn mower cable. He is handy that's about it lol no offense joe but please do explain what you do in your own words

There's a guy around town that has a VFR swing arm on his f4i. It's pretty sick. He has a rim from a car on it. If I can find pics or next time I see him I'll take some pics.

I have seen that, a great way to take a well handling motorcycle and make sure it cant out turn a shopping cart.

swing arm is def. something i wouldnt fabricate myself.. to much risk of something not being perfectly straight and causing wobble
