    I have a 1989-92 GSXR 750 torque arm if that's any good to you? Only have hydraulic lever and master cylinder lying around though. Sure a few guys will have a cable one.

    It's actually down in Sydney at the moment and I haven't seen it for over 6 months so I can't remember - not sure it's identical. I'm too familiar with my 1100 one. Large, can you nick in and have a look mate? Or Ben? You didn't need it did you Rexie?

    Where you just going to use one end to weld the other to your existing one? If so which end do you need?

    Welcome man, Love the old Slabby. If you ever want to chin wag over these old girls I'm always up for it.
    I'll give you some dollars for the old swing arm too if you get a replacement.

    Hey Ken, welcome.

    Looking at that 'ol XL185 in the background has brought back some memories. That must be 20+ years old? Looks ok for that age.
    You wanna sell it? My missus could do with a scoot like that.

    Site fee info?

    You mean maintaenance donations to become a full member? Just click here: http://www.streetfighters.com.au/ASF_fullmemb.asp

    As for your needs I don't think the Slingy torque arm will be right mate. Sorry about that. Check the sales area to see if there's any kicking around.
