If this is what you mean, it is in fact a Hals chain conversion swing arm, just as Diabo suggested.

Cool Blake I was not aware Revolution offered them or I would have made mention: )

I thought they were doing the conversion without the adjusters. Like Trojan and American Sport Bike.

Thanks Blake! If I may:

When we do the conversions the arm is placed in a jig where it lives until completely finished with all welding, machining and alignment QC. We are pretty proud of the uber tight tolerances that are maintained throughout the process.

Revolution Performance,

Could you possibly post a photo of your conversion? I could not find one on your site.

It sounds very interesting, and, correct me if I am wrong, rather less expensive than some other long wheelbase chain conversions.

Thanks
