    we all have seen SSSAs grafted onto other Honda sportbikes...so it must be a similarly easy swap to put a conventional dual spar swingarm on a VFR. Anyone ever weighed the SSSA vs a conventional unit off of an -RR Honda? The twin spar has got to weigh considerably less.

    That would be interesting to find out. Its fairly common knowledge that a SSSA is heavier than a conventional 2 sided.

    - I would love to design a carbon fibre SSSA..
