i got this off ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=150293700670

couldn't believe the price. Was worried it would be steel when it arrived even tho it looks aluminium i n the pictures.

Well it arrived to day and it is Aluminium. woohoo.
I used ebay postage voucher on it too so even more of a bargain.

So what other bits do i need to make i fit?

Shims..... And alot of luck and skill....

Just changed my swing arm for a new powdercoated one and decided in the end to get Ducati Leeds to do it.. The shiming seemed to be the issue.

You may need to change your rear wheel as well as the 900 has a 5.5 and the 600 has a 4.5

Good thing an SS owner didn't bid, it's completely wrong for that,

Have you got any tensioner end caps for an Sie/S4 Natty?

The middle of the wheel is the same so it'll fit, just corner quicker. I put a 900 ally arm on my 600 and kept the wheel. Shims are a pain to fit as its hard to hold everything in place, once measured with feeler gauge you can always buy the right shims.

Get fittin

That has come from a burnt bike.

I'd check it closely.
