Ok excluding the fact that braced swinging arms look rather knicker twanging http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/lick.gif is there any benefit to fitting on to a modern (well 1993) bike? Also is there any difference between having them Bottom braced, top braced, top and bottom braced, mega top braced or mega top and bottom braced? More strength?

Cheers
Simon.

yep makes them more rigid not sure if it it makes any dif if is top or bottom
bottom looks cooler though cuz ther are less that have them, at least " i " think so

For the money just throw a 94-95 Braced 750 arm on your 1100. Gives better handling and quicker wheelies due to its shorter length.

just wondering...... i have a 93 swingarm on mine iseing the 93 likage also
does the 94-95 use the same linkage as the 93

i tried fitting a 94 GSXR750 swinging arm on my GSXR1100 M could not get it to fit, spindle was different and location of the rear brake would have need some alloy welding to not a straight forward fit, i even asked a garage to do it for me they said it would be expensive, the braced arms of the later GSXRs look good but do they provide a better fit suspect they are longer as well
