Anybody fitted a toe guard on a black swing armed 999 or 749? If you have which one would you recommend? R and G seem to be the only mass market seller of one for our bike.
It's a scruteneering requirement for racing, the idea being to prevent feet, hands, body parts being drawn into the rear sprocket.
You would have difficulty getting your toes in the sprocket on a black box type swing arm as the chain is inside the swing arm any way.
This is the point of the thread. I know it's an acu requirement and what the purpose of the guard / fin is for, but with the natural shape of this swingarm is it really needed?
i would say no too. best bet would be to check with the club you are going racing with. You could try some dealers like Louigi Moto as they have built race 749's. if you ever go on motoforum, there are some scrutineers that post on there.
