    Strange set up. My first thought was "why?". But I respect any mans right to tinker so all the power to him. Wonder how it performs?

    why upgrade?

    Sometimes it just comes down to you don't the money for a new bike,
    so you upgrade your old one. Here's 82 250WR i bought were someone
    upgraded to a mid 90's single shock. The rear suspension actually
    worked very good.

    Both look trick. Not sure about the gold cylinder. Looks good... looks ghetto... looks good... looks ghetto...

    the one you posted has no linkage. the one with the aluminium swingarm has a linkage and must have had some frame mods. Both scare the hell out of me. :D
