Ron, be aware that the aluminum swing arm is longer than a '72's stock one.

Hi Cody,

Have you had much chance to ride your hot rodded H1 with the aluminum swing arm? Just wondering how it affects the feel of the bike compared to
a stock arm.

So I still don't have a answer to the one question I am trying to get answered. Every bike I build gets tapered steering stem bearings, bronze bushing in the swinger, longer rear shocks. Will use a 18" front wheel and go through the forks. So if you had two identical bikes with the above fixes and the only difference was one had a braced frame, could you feel the difference?

Frame bracing will only help under heavy, high speed cornering forces, forcing the frame to flex. So if you are doing that, probably so.

No bracing required :thumbdown:

The answer is - the heavier one will be slower.
