Mille Swinging Arm

#1 Post by Aladinsaneuk » Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:14 pm

One of my local bike dealers spoke to me today, and revealed he has a mille swing arm, in good condition, with one mark on it

I will find out what year it is from, if i can, and get a photo etc

Anyone have any idea on the value of such an item and if any one is interested in buying it, send me a PM and i will give you his name and phone number

IMHO £50, assuming it doesn't have any plastics with it.
They call it mellow yellow.

Look at this here for some good pics of an RSV swing-arm on a Falco.

Very nice bike :smt004 .
