Post by: jimg1au on March 14, 2012, 03:01:49 pm

hi
anyone have some pics of how the chain guard is mounted when there is no lugs to fit. my flattrack bikes dont have the lugs on swing arm so i have to make something.
anyone have a easyer way than pulling the swing arm out and welding a lug then getting the swing arm replated or panted

clamps style. speedway have then and some small pit bikes use the same.  it just clamps on the tube section.  so long as the chain is inside or running on the arm then its cool if not then it can rotate into the wheel no doubt......

on my champion framer i used 2 pieces of flat sheet then clamped it in with 4 bolts ( 2 either side of arm, the bottom 2 bolts also picked up on a Suzuki or YAmaha guide like 74 model ones.  Seemed to work and stay in place.

I can weld something on for you while its in the bike or as Freaky said, 2 plates & 4 bolts to clamp it to the arm.
Welded will look better.
