« on: January 17, 2021, 08:39:50 am »
What aluminum swing arm will bolt up /line up the easiest  without modify CB750A Frame Also what front end will work. I cant find where i saw it I believe i could use a Katana swingarm and a GSXR front end is that correct . what years parts would work or what could i use . I want maching rims . its just an idea I'm looking into.  on a rear disk brakes could i put a hand leaver for that because 750A doesn't have anything on left side handle bar side

Cognitomoto.com can make you a set of triple trees for just about any front end.  You just tell them what you have and give them a bunch of money.  For rear disc brakes you can use an F model rear master cylinder assembly, just remember you'll lose the parking brake

 I'm late to answer but a gs1100E with dual shocks seems to work on cb750's,  it's longer though. Shock spacing is probably an issue.
No matter how many times you paint over a shadow, it's still there.
If you love it, set it free, if it stays it's probably one of my 750's.

You need to add shock mounts if you use a katana swingarm, and switch stems on a gsxr front end, and change the fork stops. The offset is different on the front end so it may take you a bit to adjust. The katana swingarm is also longer. I don’t remember for sure, but  in the 4-6” range. I think I have both a katana swingarm and gsxr frontend under my bed. Hit me up if you want to go that route.
