I have a swing arm from a 77 I'm in Cochrane (just out of calgary)

Before I buy it putting this out to all the people who know this better thebut myself. I like the size and the price is nice aswell but I would like to know if it will work so I'm not wasting my time ordering it...

Are you sure it's raked? I just bought one that I thought was raked out and it turned out it was just the extended forks playing tricks with the eyes.

I'm in Canada how would I order on-line?

Turn out the engine is the same as my 77 so that's a plus. The forks are mint. Has a bunch of hd garbage on it that I'm going to toss... The rear swing arm looks like it was ment for the disc. And going to compare the frame tomorrow with mine to see it anything other then the rear has been chopped.

I hopefully go to get the bike tomorrow and then I can see what I'm working with. I already have my 77 stripped all the way down to the frame. Waiting on my monster craftsmen brat kit. I was going to start cutting off un needed tabs. I'm hoping to weld sandblast and paint next weekend. Then...

Cool thanks! I will try to scavenge what I can from the parts set up and use it on My frame.

Would it be hard to rig my 77 swingarm up with the disc brakes setup off the other swingarm if it's an early 70s? I want the longer swingarm..

Awesome thanks for the info. I was planning on using my 77 frame and the swingarm off of this bike cause it looks to be setup for the rear disk . If the forks aren't pitted I will remove the extensions and us them. And I will have to figure out what motor to use the 77 I already have or the one...

Thanks back looks ruff! I'm wanting it for the swingarm and disc brakes... I'm told the forks are good but have screw on extensions. I'm hoping the carbs are good as well.

I'm about to buy this xs year unknown for a parts bike for my project I'm wondering if anyone can tell if the neck has been chopped by look at the picture...if anything else pops out to anyone I would be interested in their thoughts... Thanks

I would be interested is seeing how people mount the front as a rear as well...

It's not pretty but seems well built. I got this a a package deal with a 77xs650. I don't have much interest in a hardtail. I'm told it has an ignition problem. I'm looking for a visual impact brat kit or monstercraftsmen kit. A pma kit. Non stock carbs or cash to buy the stuff listed. I'm...

It's a cb750 bobber frame with an unknown year xs650 motor. I was told it ran but it has an ignition problem.. the wiring is a mess... The bike is solid but very rat rod custom.

I'm told the farm xs frame is not an easy fix... I'm in the process of selling the second bike I got with my project and it could cover my parts list if I get the right price for it.. I really like the taste of the koolaid just do love how much it costs.
