Swingarm nut size

Hey Guys,

Away from my bike right now, but would anyone know what size the Swingarm Bolt/nut size is? Need to make sure I have the socket in my chest when I hope to swap in a new rear set this weekend.

Cheers

Looks to be excellent (for Jan) weather for riding this weekend!

Hey Sarge, bolt head is 22mm, nut is 27mm. Hope this helps! And you definitely need to post up some pics of those other bikes! Would love to see those Yamahas they sound really cool!

Oh nice, I love the RD's two stroke beasts
That just reminded me, one of my first projects I did with another friend back in 1992, we took Benelli 125cc and fitted a CR250 motor in with a bit of welding, it was an ugly bike, but riding this beast was like riding a wild horse very light weight and powerful, eventually the frame gave up, but it worked for almost a year with a few replacement rings and piston for the CR motor

Here's an old project '73 cb350 I built. Nothing like yours or any of the fabricating talent but she was nice anyway. I've posted it up before but it was a fun bike. Note the mandatory limp sausage taillight also

Been toying with the idea of putting a big bore banshee motor in a spare frame for a little custom terror machine, or find a big single 2 stroke. Nothing like seeing the sky unwanted when it really comes on the pipe.

Been seeing a lot of cafed 350s, definitely been an increase in street value lately!

Getting a title for that isn't too difficult. VT honors out of state Registrations and with that you can get a title almost anywhere.
