Finally got around to make the bushings to fit a Motolanna SR500 swingarm to an rd frame. Will tackle the wheel next. Pretty simple and a cost effective choice for an aftermarket swingarm.
Nice! They look wider than the ones I made, I'll have to get a picture of mine. Sadly, there will be no milling machine in the background of my picture :confusing2: :'(

Once they're painted John Deere Blitz Black, only her hairdresser will ever know.
Nice job. Mill is nice as is the lathe sitting to the right just out of picture. The ones I made are wider but really just to fit the included chain guard. The actual bushing/spacer width is only 6.5mm, mine are 16.5mm. My RD frame and I assume all others measured at 200mm wide for the swingarm. Bushing both RD and SR is 197mm and the Motolanna swingarm is 187mm. OD to fit the chain guard was roughly 35.5mm.
Thanks! Regarding frame widths: I've done two FZ600 swingarms in RZ350s, and they were different widths by a couple of mm. I don't know if that's due to production tolerances or a couple of decades of use and tipovers (crashes? what are those?), but I definitely had to cut one swingarm narrower than the other. They both work!
