Swing arm and coating?

Post by skyerae »

I am looking for an RU swing arm with chain protector (if possible) and would like to know what coating was on them, it looks like an aluminium two pack grey paint. I intend to get the new (to me) part painted to original spec and fitted. Polishing the swing arm sounds like a never ending job and trying to keep it original as possible, excepting the Ohlins shock and gold spot front calipers (and braided brake lines as well, and exhaust)
If you can't do a job properly, don't do it at all !!!

all the arms are the same but the later ones were painted as you say. if you're intending painting it anyway then you have the choice of either to buy.

I have a spare chain protector rubber if you need one :nod:
