Hello,
Easy question for the freaks Very Happy

Is the sb6r hugger the same as the sb8r?
I need a new one for the 6R and i can get one from a 8R from a forummer.
Who knows the answer ( the 6R swing arm looks pretty much like the 8R but i am not sure).
Regards

Hmm i think not.
Only reason because my current swingarm is already polished Very Happy

Thank you for figuring out my question!

...Not a problem Wink

gave me reason to change the fixings to stainless and nylon washers. Gave the swinger a good scrub with WD40 and refitted it all with copious amounts of coppaslip.

...Been meaning to do that for a couple of years Wink
