lowriderb Posted October 10, 2009 Report Posted October 10, 2009 so i have a tyson arched swing arm with no wheely bar mounts and im wanting to build my own bar what is the best plat to mount the bar to the swingarm? also how long do i make it? you could get longer pinch bolts and connect your heims to that for the lower.. for the upper im not sure how your bike is set up but it doesnt look like much on the subframe you could attatch to.

JMADD Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 Yeah it looks like you would have to weld some brackets on that beautiful subframe. You may be able to run the tops of the bar to the end of your grab bar, but that just seems like asking for trouble. YOu don't want that bar up your ass if something breaks or bends. Quote
kubitza123 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 Best thing is to just get longer grade 8 pinch bolts for the bottom. I would run a bolt or pin threw the grab bar for the top. Or you canmeasure it and call Tim at AZCUSTOMS and he can build you a nice 4 link to fit nicely shipped raw finish for around $400 out of chrome-moly. Wont weigh but around 15 lbs . Of course thats only if the rear end is strutted. Quote
tony cub Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 you could make some plates that go to the top mount of your rear strut to hold a heim.we did that on our last bike and worked out great.i also have a aluminum wheelie bar for a set up like yours,if your interested..... Quote
badassbanshee479 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 just build ya alittle mount like the pic I drew up for ya... the front of it mounts at the bolt for the shock strut etc... and the back mounts at the pinch bolts... just mount the lower wheelie bar heims on the pinch bolts and then mount he top bar to the tab of the mount I drew up for ya.... thi way here you can remove it all if you go to the dunes or something Quote
yamaha11 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 joe when you figure it out let me now what you did i would like one to Quote
yfzdunejumper Posted October 14, 2009 Report Posted October 14, 2009 Nice looking banshee. Pinch bolts on the bottom and on the strut for the top Quote

dajogejr Posted October 22, 2009 Report Posted October 22, 2009 JOe, Go right back to Tyson and have him make you a wheelie bar mount for that arm. I run exactly what badass is talking about . front mounts to the lower shock mount, the back mounts above the pinch bolts on a plate. Quote
