Show me your swingarm braces

[neevo]

Looking to brace my swingarm on my CB400F and need some direction from those that have one or have done one.

Got some spare tube from fixing my frame that I can get the shape from including uprights but not sure how to clear the brake arm and the chain.

Anyone got some pointers or ideally some pics of their bracing?

This isn't mine, but this guy is on the VJMC mailing list and the CB400F Yahoo group.

Excellent! That helps a lot, thanks.

If you haven't done so already, check out the Tech Info frame study and link to stress analysis

Spend a lot of money to double your unsprung weight in the rear end, hmmmmmmm. Unless there is some indication that the swingarm is flexing it would be awfully difficult to justify this modification and then of course I have to ask, what shocks do you plan to use to harness this additional unsprung weight?
