Wohoo, my third post (i think) [nope it's my fourth :D]

okay, for my 2002 R1 i am considering the following:

single side swing arm from dynomite
+ their gp 500 seat pipe kit.
surf to their website here (http://www.dynomite.co.uk/Dynosite/HTMLfiles/R1_gp500.html)

what i want know to is:

who has one or more of these mods?
does the swing arm negatively affect riding behaviour?
and any experiences you could share would be hopefull

Hi ZEN !!!!!!!:hellobye

You are motivated like a ZEN-MASTER:D

I think a single side is not so good cause
the weight is higher .
Side arms(swing) is not suspensiond weight
so I would prefer a lighter stiffer two-side
(carbon)!:rock

But for the show take the single-side arm!:cool:

Take it like a ZEN-MASTER : step by step
or post bypost:crash
:D :D :D

Go for it man!

Sure.. maybe yamaha made their frame a bit heavier on the other side of the Exhaust to make up for the weight of the exhaust part.. but if not.. then you got nothing to worry about. Instead you got a lot more free space for leaning over and do knee scraping.

Top notch! Make sure to custom paint your bike too..
