Anybody ever hear of after market swingarm for Tubers? I was looking at a 01 X1 the other day and the dude told me it had one...Sure looked like just a polished stocker with hugger mounts removed...Dork was also bragging that it had the fattest tire and rim you could get..PM Wheel and a 180..I got a good chuckle

Don't know if they are still available, but someone (a French company?) made single sided ones for tubers. Saw one in the flesh once; it was owned by a seasonal tourist employee working in Juneau. Did a web search at the time, and Hoo Boy!!! was the manufacturer proud of them.

I know Spondon made a sweet swingarm for tuners at one time.... tubular, I believe it was single sided. Oh... and pricey!

Metmachex and JMC both over in the UK still make 'em. Cost is up there.

Yes, Spondon had the single sided one. SICK.

These guys will make one still I believe for around $600-$700. Not single sided.

And here's the Metmachex one, made for an S1 so methinks you'd need the early steel swingarm mount.

Those are all pretty sweet, but now I'm even more convinced he has a stocker that's been polished and had the hugger mounts removed.

Thanks to Ralph (Xldevil), I have one of these K&J swingarms getting put on my X1.

From the manufacturers website:

http://krueger-junginger.de/Harley_2010.pdf

The design changed a little and actually looks like the one on this page (almost at the bottom of the page).

Wow,

Never knew about the Bakker one. I am digging that design. I might have to inquire for a future purchase...

So could someone explain to me what is wrong with the stock swingarm?! Is it just a matter of adding bling or the stocker is real heavy and we are trying to cut some weight?
Just wondering...

Stocker X1/S2/M2 is pretty cool, IMHO. I'd do better shedding pounds by going on a diet.
