Says it fits cb500 cb550 and cb650.

Personally I'm not a fan of all the adjustable swedge links and jam nuts involved. I realize this is to make it somewhat "universal", but anyone that has done a fair bit of hot rodding or jeeping knows that small rod links in high stress areas wear out quickly and need constant adjustment. It looks a little weak to me.
 
That was my concern also. I am concerned about the design . I have been thinking of doing something along this route. But I am unsure of the stresses applied to the frame with a design like this .
