With all these delays that keep going on with JMC does anybody know where else or what swing arm can you fit in a 1000 j to take a bigger wheel
nothing over the top just 150/160?? or what will fit without major frame mods please?

Real shame... coz metmachex are second to JMC... in quality & design :cry:
How about Spondon (aka Norton) :wink:
And on the 7th day... Zeds were created!

No doubt you have read my recent probs with JMC, well here is another, they said I would have to send my axle back to be modified cos they could not provide me with another because they could no longer buy the steel stock as Corus their supplier had pretty much given up. Now I dont know how true this is but its what they told me, so seems to me they will have even bigger delays than ever!!
I would try Spondon loke Mark suggests.

A guy on OSS has had the same problem with an arm for a 750 slabby, waiting months for it. Then it dont fit. Id try this guy http://www.giaengineering.co.uk or steel heart engineering.

Try talking to Chris at straightline racing (usedkawasakispares.co.uk) he has a JMC Swing arm (unbraced) that I sold him last week with some other bits. With a GPZ11, it needs a good polish up and clean but you could always send it to Mikey in Bristol to get him to do it for you.
Tell Chris Phil Moore put you in touch.
