And by gear I mean the billets and threaded rod with whatever it's called that goes around the axle on each side of the wheel...

So, um, yeah... I've been away from the CB for a while. Can you tell? No end caps on the swingarm -that's the XS11 that has those.

Sure, chain adjusters. That's a great name for them =)

Mark, I didn't get pics last night. I'll have to get them to you tomorrow.

Yeah, the programs see the familiar e-mail address written out plain as day, that information gets copied and sent back to the spammers. That's how you go from getting no spam to getting hundreds in a matter of days. Those emails are collected into lists and shared among spammers and are largely considered "validated" emails since someone posted it. They're very valuable to companies (mostly illegitimate ones) that take your money with the promise to sell you things like Viagra, discounted porn, even-gasp- motorcycle parts!

Viagra,discounted porn and motorcycle parts...now that is quite a selection. I bet someone already cornered the market on that,though.

You said something about handlebar housings? I have a set of right hand controls I'll sell pretty cheap. Just let me know if that's what you're looking for.

Looking for both sides, trying to get a matching-year set. But if you have a pic, I will definitely take a look. I can always try and find its match. :)

Just the '79 K swing arm from the bike bosco39 is parting out. I still want the dresda for the cafe bike though. That bike may get a hotter engine, so I would like a little stiffer swing arm in back. :) I won't be
taking measurements on the two until I install it, maybe a month or two from now. When I do, I will have side by side photos with measurements on both the '74 and the '79 swing arm for comparison.

I've got an app on my phone that will do that too. Up to the minute market exchange rates (delayed 15 minutes, non-professional version). The site I mentioned was completely in Japanese. I had to use Google Translate to read most of it. :)
