Single side swingarm.
 
I think I may have stumble upon something really cool. At first glance the RC swing-arm looks to fit right onto a VTR, if anyone knows for sure let me know, if this is the case a company by the name of RAM http://www.ram.mc has a retrofit kit for a SSS for a RC51!

I thought I read somewhere that the swingarm of certain year VFR's would fit the SH.

It does, thou according to extensive information I collected in case I'd go for it myself (LOT of it from here - thanks to guys contributing) it requires quite a work on exhaust etc.
I think it makes much more sense to brace SHawk swingarm with brase sawn off CBR swingarm or (if you have money) buy Moriwaki swingarm...
VFR swingarm does look beatiful, but it does not provide any rigidity gain....IMHO.

Heh :) SSS modification is for looks, not rigidity!

and convience. It's alot easier and faster to remove the wheel from a SSS than convential swingarm
