Hi... thanks for the info!!! Very helpful. Likely I'll likely just put an NC30 spindle or eccentric in the Hawk arm, so the NC30 wheel will bolt...
UPDATE: Still waiting on the Hawk GT swingarm to show up. Should arrive this week. In the mean time, I have removed the VF500F swingarm on my test...
It was made by Thurn Motorsports in Germany. I just sent them an email, since I will need one for the new project. I asked it they still make or...
From Hopit88: VF500 stock distance from wheel center to outside of chain(the important number) was reported to me to be around 90mm+/-. Mine is...
Single sided Swingarm Dimensions I found this information online: There are a number of SSSAs used by honda on the VFR over the years. Here's...
Wow! lots of opinions, rhetoric, and 'hand-wringing' on this thread! So... back to a previous post, Hopit can you get me the measurements I asked...
Thanks for the measurement Hopit. If you can get me one more measurement it would be helpful. What is the distance from your chain CL to the CL of...
Not a bad idea... I looked at the frame and I think the 90 deg V4 would be too large to fit in there. The VT650 is a narrow-angle v twin and the...
Well, that's your opinion Tinker, and you're certainly entitled to it. There are many thousands of VFR riders with swingarms that "look like shit'...
Thanks for the arm front width dimensions! I measured the front of the VF500 arm today with a really accurate tape measure fished through the...
Sorry, but you're just wrong there. The VF500 frame is rectangular steel, and has immense strength and rigidity. When you look at the aluminum...
Well, we'll see about that... I refuse to give up on something just because some naysayer says 'it can't be done'. Believe me, the VTR1000 SSS...
No worries.. Thanks for the post! You are a true wealth of information! There are many things to consider with this potential project. On my...
Hey guys, I was wondering if anybody here has put a VFR750 SSS on their VF500F (see other thread) and had some spare time this AM waiting for the...
Alright... I'm sitting here in front of the TV sipping my coffee, waiting for the Daytona 500 to start (lookin' pretty soggy there) so I did some...
Howdy! That's not true (sorry)... the VF500 rear pipes pass in front of the swingarm pivot, not through the swingarm. The big hole in the arm is...
Here's a pic of my VTR1000 with the VFR800 SSS: [IMG] Cheers, BLIGHT
Hi Tinker, when I did my VFR800 SSS conversion on the VTR1000 I weighed all the components and, you're right, the SSS is slightly heavier, but...
Anybody tried a Honda SSS on the VF500F? Probably the VFR750 SSS would be the best bet... but I'm just guessing. I put a SSS on a VTR1000 in a...
