CB750 F2 Swingarm Converison
« on: January 30, 2019, 10:19:26 AM »
I saw on Webike then had a conversion kit to use the Katana /GS1100 swing on a DOHC CB750F 1979-82. My question is will a DOHC CB750F swingarm fit the frame of a SOHC CB750F2 1977-1978? They look to be the same but I don't know the measurements or have access to one.

 Some of the dohc bikes went back to a drum brake, watch for that change.

Lucky, who was/is member here, used 79 swingarm on his SOHC4 CB750. Try searching for it.  As far as i remember, he had to narrow the pivot part of the swingarm on one side to line it up properly.

Thanks, assuming this is what the kit does.
