I know difference of 750 vs 850 boxed braced swing arm, but looks to me like mainly to protect the front junction bending not so much to stiffen up the long tubes from road deflections. I can't tell if I've run into this as a problem or not.
Anyone have an idea or measure of how much factory swing arm may deflect-spring side/side in laid over lumpy turns?
Anyone have an idea or measure of how much factory swing arm may deflect in twist manner laid over in lumpy turns?
Anyone have a sense if a stiffer swing arm may affect-improve handling staility when laid over lumpy turns?
Anyone have an opinion if the factory swing arm is even a factor worth stiffening up?
I've seen a couple of box leg swing arms made but not such on racers so wonder if its over kill decoration or not, ot if just a race rule no no.
