Update: I have installed all the bearings into the newer swingarm and i am going to go ahead and run it. I got a mint grey 06 wheel on the way that i will be putting bearings in. All i need now is the shock and linkage.. I have an old badly bent 06 wheel i want to salvage the bearings out of because they look and roll like they are pretty new plus they are free! haha
I installed an 06 upper triple clamp today that i plan to cut the key hole off of.. Really only did it for aesthetic reasons.. the 03/04 one is black and all the hard parts on my bike are silver so i just thought this matched better. I plan on paint matching my swingarm to the factory color of the frame/swingarm since i have plenty of access to paint and everything being as i am an auto collision tech by trade.
I will install the whole 07/08 rear when i receive my wheel and shock/linkage. So there should be more progress soon.
