    Gentlemen, (and Ladies),

    I am struggling to get a straight answer on this one. Maybe someone here knows? Or, maybe its a dumbass question. Either way, Here goes:

    I'm considering getting a pit bull trailer restraint system (I like the concept of grabbing the rear axle instead of the handlebars) but I'm not sure if it works with the single sided swingarm. I've tried to get info off their web site but they don't show much and I haven't had the luxury of talking with a human about it. Does anyone happen to know?

    Much appreciated,

    Cheers!

    If you had access to a machine shop, you might be able to fab up something, but just as it is, no it won't work.

    Apologies in advance if not allowed to post business links here:

    These are good folks, and yes, their stuff is a bit pricey. I'm near them, and for a reasonable price, they engineered and supplied a set of TRS adapters for my '01 XR650R. At the time, not available, although now they list XR650L restraint parts.

    I'm not sure what pages you went thru, but info is most definitely there.

    Whoops, now I see where the confusion may be coming from. The pic shows a standard swingarm setup. Hmmmm ... try their chat function. I can't imagine these guys listing parts for '98 - '16, and not being aware of the SSSA :D.

    Email them. They have some of the best customer service of any motorcycle-related company I've dealt with.
