Does anyone know the pivot width on the GT550 swingarm?
In fact does anyone have any idea of the widths of Suzuki swingarms of the 70s early 80s?

Re: Swingarm width
Both the GS550 swing arms I have are 226mm wide at the frame end - including the dust/grease seals at each side.
Access to the GS550 swinger on the Earwig is dire, but I remember it went in without any issues. I have found out that K, M and A/B GT550 frames are very different, so I think you're in for some filing or grinding!

Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.
