Default Rear swingarm
Hi All,

Can anyone tell me if you can fit a late model touring swingarm (2002 or newer with 1-inch axle) to an earlier frame (2001 or earlier)? If so do I use all late model parts or a combination of early and late.

Have a nice day,

Dan

Be careful what jack you use when you pull the swingarm.
