The stock swingarm was relieved of its rear 12 inches. Sims machined adapter plates that slip inside the remainder of the stock extruded sections by approximately two inches and welded them in position. The adapter plates provide two mounting options for the rear axle; one in a near-stock position, and the second 53/4 inches further back. The frame, swingarm and triple clamps were all sent to The Frame Man (916/927-9712) for blueprinting and straightening. A Race Tech modified shock and handmade, shortened link arms complete the rear suspension. The stock rear disc is lightened, and the caliper mounts to a handmade bracket and adjustable stay arm. Titanium axle and aluminum chain guard were fabricated by Sims, as were the pipe hanger, fuel pump guard and anything else that's purple anodized. Hey Richard, what's your favorite color?
