Very cool - it's a really good looking part, will buy a bit more ride height too, which most GSXRs seem to like. Looking forward to seeing the top yoke. Check out the dyeing process for anodised aluminum, you can do it any colour you like, inc the dark bronze / green that the DOW treatments give Magnesium. Looks super trick.

Michael Dunlop also uses the longer swingarm at the Manx when riding/winning on the SRAD. So much for the pedigree RGV500 geometry eh. I will look into anodising aluminium again, you've piqued my interest! Agreed, it can look equally awful as amazing 😁

It might be helpful to know that not all aluminium alloys take well to anodizing.
Rule of thumb is that cast parts can't be anodized.
