Spotted this ...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ducati-monster-swingarm-/192076664110?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276
£30 for an ally swinger, including both shafts and adjusters .. its an absolute steal.
And its "buy it now" so that's a fixed price with no bidding.
I nearly bought it myself, even though I already have one on my 750.
Its the nice one with the flush hugger mounts rather than the uglier raised brackets too.
Fill yer boots .. but hurry, it won't be there long.

You're right.... Somebody has already snapped it up.

(Not me btw)

Well, I hope it was a forum member.
Tbh, I very nearly nabbed it myself just to pass on to someone, but the £20 postage put me off.
It was easily worth £100 more than it sold for, considering the spindles and adjusters were all there
In fact, I still need a brake-side end cap, and I almost bought it just for that.

I've got a spare alloy swingarm here up for grabs

Think it came of the 900sie model - has the floating rear caliper mount

The floating caliper does not mount on the swinging arm. It hangs on the axle.

Or do you mean you also have the floating caliper bracket and bushes?

it has the rose jointed tie bar that picks up somewhere.... possibly back of engine crank case?

allows caliper to move rather than being solidy fixed to swingarm

My mate says

The swing arm on the ies is the same as any of the other ally swing arm monsters. The caliper 'mounts' on the axle so you'd still need the bushes and mounting plate for the axle end plus the L shaped plate for the crankcase end to complete the floating kit..
