- Single sided swingarms After starting this thread I got too busy with work. Wow there has been like hundred posts on it. 1) "Who cares about old race bikes." ??? A lot of us do!! One of the cool things about the VFR is its racing roots. 2) I…
- Single sided swingarms I think the single sided swing arm is one of the coolest motorcyle innovations. Does anyone know its history, where it came from etc? Also is there any performance related advantages, or is it just made to look cool?…
