    Have you considered finding a big modern swingarm and welding twin shock mounts to it?

    Ed,

    Yes, I have thought of it but I think I will stick w/ the stocker for the time being. If the stocker was good enough for all the "go fast" guys of that erra - then it will probably be fine for my ability and speed.

    I might be doing something w/ the stock arm when I get back to the back of the bike. The swingarm has some welding requirements anyways.
