Title: Honda Swingarm

Hello.
Found this picture in the CD6 thread. Does anyone know what swingarm it is? Homemade from a newer one?
Thanks

That would be my bike with Mark Pace riding it. I was amazed at how much of a terriffic bloke Mark is and he seemed genuinely humbled by the ttention he received. The swingarm is a Novation banana swingarm (sorry Firko) but it runs 16.5" shocks instead of the 17.5" standard ones. The rear suspension on that bike is superb, the match of the shocks and swingarm transform the bike dramatically.

Hey Magoo,
I didn't know you knew what the word 'humble' meant?  ???
