UF's cb550f cafe tracker

[ultimate fighter]

Wife decided to go and take the test for her motorcycle permit. She's been riding with my illegally for a while. ;D

So i drug out one of the old hoopties from storage that i picked up for $80 a few months ago.

we sat down and hammered out some potential styles. After seeing some on the internet and sitting on some of my customer's bikes she just HAD to have a neat little cafe tracker

so i got to choppin, with some quick research and a few spare parts sitting around.

all in a days work.

simple leftover carbon fiber piece

What front end are you using and what swing arms have you tried. I am helping a buddy build a '77 CB550 and to my understanding the swing arm has to be a max width of 9.25".

Build looks sweet!

This arm fits pretty good with a 3/8 offset sprocket from cyclex.

This swingarm actually for sale. I am working on a ducati 916 single sided swingsrn conversion for it.
