Title: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: Willthedub on March 27, 2015, 02:40:12 PM The DSS swing arm was available years ago for monster does anyone remember these?
Does anyone know where I can get one? Or get one made? Do you have one for sale? Cheers guys [thumbsup] Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: stopintime on March 27, 2015, 03:08:09 PM http://www.motocorse.net/pdf/A4_DEF.pdf (http://www.motocorse.net/pdf/A4_DEF.pdf)
MotoCorse. Probably no longer available (the catalog is 2008) Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: brad black on March 27, 2015, 06:50:07 PM i'm sure the price would make your arse run.
norm used to make some. haven't heard of him for a long time now. there's a few english swingarm makers, metmachex, jmc? anyone who makes good custom stuff should be able to make one. Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: Willthedub on March 28, 2015, 06:17:55 AM I've done a bit more research and I've tracked them down here http://www.emotouk.com/ducati/motocorse/swingarm.htm (http://www.emotouk.com/ducati/motocorse/swingarm.htm)
1600 English pounds though!! I think I can get a custom one made for less, I will check those guys out If anyone has one for sale though pm me! Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: Willthedub on March 28, 2015, 06:32:37 AM Also this swing arm is to fit Monster S4, 800, 900, 400ie, 900ie 02/1000.
Will this even fit on a 695 2007 ? Anyone know? I'll start a new thread Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: kopfjäger on March 28, 2015, 12:21:34 PM They were heavy if I remember correctly.
Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: stopintime on March 28, 2015, 12:38:11 PM ... 1600 English pounds though!! .... They were heavy if I remember correctly. I'd say ;) Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: dbran1949 on March 29, 2015, 03:45:37 PM I don't think these are the same, the original was a TubOlar swing arm, this one is totally tubular ;D

Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: Willthedub on April 02, 2015, 11:08:47 AM Should have been a factory swing arm in my opinion

SpikeC do you have anymore info on that arm? Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: SpikeC on April 11, 2015, 04:49:05 PM It is from a number of Bimota ducati powered bikes. the DB5 series, the Tesi 3Ds, and several others. I suspect that they may be rather expensive, tho....
Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: Rudemouthsky on April 11, 2015, 05:23:59 PM That's a lovely runner up where did you have that made? SpikeC do you have anymore info on that arm? Oh, I didn't mean to give the impression that was *my* runner-up...I meant my choice as runner-up. Found that browsing .ms awhile back. Tried to contact the guy but no luck. That's one big block of 6000 series billet...and some mighty fine machining...so I imagine the price was insane. Gotta be at least a grand worth of alloy before anyone even touched it. Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: MotoPsycho on April 14, 2015, 12:06:05 PM I don't know how many here follow Strada Fab on bookface, but he did a Bimota swingarm on a Supersport recently. He did a exceptional job I think.
Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: OT on April 24, 2015, 08:49:45 PM Wanna buy a slightly used bridge, instead? ;D
Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: Willthedub on April 25, 2015, 05:43:09 AM Do you have any pics?
Title: Re: DSS trellis swing arm Post by: MotoPsycho on May 02, 2015, 02:48:29 PM Randy definitely makes some nice looking parts.
