  • You gotta check out this katana

    What is up with this? That's a crazy expensive swingarm, WAY overkill. Paint is kinda cool though..

      Wow, looks like a work bike, and he needed a place to stow his ladder.

      I give him points from how he ran the swingarm brace to the outside of the frame. Pretty creative. but way overkill. nice job though, and he looks to be a pretty good fabricator.

        My guess is he put the swingarm out there to be able to shoe-horn a wider (200mm?) drag tire in there...

        Interesting, but I don't want it...

              It's kinda hard to tell from the pics but normally people run those types of arms to run wheelie bars and solid mount the suspension (no shock, direct mount). That type of arm is what you see on a prostock bike, I'm sure it started out as a 5.5" wheel conversion or something than things went terribly terribly wrong

                    I would think that if you were going to sell something as a 'drag' anything, you should at least provide some timeslips or something.
