You have been asking us for a while now to offer a lower budget swingarm, well here it is:
The new “Sport” arm.
This swingarm is constructed from 4130 Chromoly, and unlike any of our other swingarms, which come as complete units; this is a “base model” production style swingarm in which you use your axle and bearings. It comes with 4” of adjustment, a spacious air tank, 4 hole axle adjusters, rear brake hook up, NOS mount and powder coated black. It will be offered with or without underbracing. We have chain guards, NOS or CO2 brackets, chain rollers and tire huggers as options that you can get when you order your arm or at a later date.
Also, this arm is going to be offered on a trade-in program, which will allow you to upgrade to a different style arm or get a longer arm as your needs progress. This arm will allow you to get in and stay in
the “Sport” of motorcycle drag racing.
Suzuki non-under braced Sport arms are $600.00
Suzuki under braced Sport arms are $700.00
Kawasaki non-under braced Sport arm are $650.00
Kawasaki under braced Sport arms are $750.00

It looks like the bend in the arm is like the evil arm, not mandrel bent.
If evil arm holds bent like that, I guess this one would as well

Ya that's a good deal and IMO it's because of evil some of these other companys have seen the need to offer an arm like that.

My Evil arm seems to work just fine with those bends ... Mine is under braced .. That picture looks just like my Evil arm with out the brace ..

yes he is easy to talk to if you can get him, he stays busy, my arm took a little longer than he said but it's well worth waiting for the best., Lucky and I have the Alumipro. If you find a buddy to buy two arms you can get a very good discount

Like I said, it didn't make sense Mcintosh selling Evil arms lol, I wonder what brand swingarm racers will buy now?

Well it doesn't look any better or worse than a evil arm, I'd just go with the cheaper one.
