hi all

[dunno]

Apologies first for not knowing anything about Italian bikes(suzuki guy) at all.I recently acquired an ex racers parts(lots of them) and in amongst them were a few unrecognisable jmc swingarms with right side chain drive so after hours of trawling the web for recognisable fittings(lugs/brake caliper plate location etc) i found pictures which looked familiar on this site.So i then joined so i could see bigger pictures in detail.They are obviously not going to fit my bikes so i can recoup some of my investment back.
If i am being too cheeky just tell me otherwise if i put a few pics up with some measurements is that ok?
I know on a certain website where i am a member this is frowned upon and causes immediate deletion of said posts.
Cheers

ok,both take a 17mm wheel spindle,polished unbraced one has a 14mm swingarm pivot spindle,the other has a 40mm id for bearings.the polished one looks like it has had the same caliper carrier bracket as the other cut off.i have took more measurements if needed.
thanks.

If I may suggest something:
Put your location more specifically than UK and include a recent local newspaper, in shot with the swinging arms, in your photographs.

There are a lot of scammers around and that may boost confidence in your bona fides.

Ooo, proof of life photo. This is an interesting thread. Nicely done.

Humour helps. BTW, my snarky comment is because someone turning up with a part that some might consider a Holy Grail object seems too good to be true. If it turns out to be correct, a lot of people were trying to buy one of those swingarms as the company slowly sank below the waves. Some even lost deposits, if I remember right.

If you put up a copy of The Sun you’ll be deleted!

14mm swingarm spindle???!!! Not Laverda, but may well fit with different bearings - measurements across the spindle outer-outer and axle inner-inner, and distance from spindle to shock mount would aid in assessing compatibility.

Braced one is 205mm across pivot,wheel space between wheel adjusters is 235mm and spindle to spindle is 470mm,40mm bearing cup.

Shiny unbraced is 14mm pivot but a 40mm bearing cup size like the other one.235mm across pivot with bearings and caps removed-245mm with them.235mm between wheel adjusters.And spindle to spindle 470-475mm.
All done with a tape measure so might be mm off.

From what i have read on here early 750 /1000/1200`s used a 14mm spindle before going to a 16mm spindle.
