All 650Rs Swing arm spools?

[quigonquinn]

Haven't really been able to find info out there for the Cbr650Rs as far as swing arm spools go.

I have a swing arm stand with both the spool slots and rubber pads. But the curved shape of our swing arms, does not make me very confident in the bike resting on the pads.

I have seen some talk of how the older models don't have stock attachement points.

But, these holes are on the bottom of the swing arm on both sides. Is this a point for something to attach to allow for spools?

Those holes are most likely there as drain purpose
The only spoils available are from R&G and T-Rex racing (there is another brand but I don’t remember the name)
Otherwise there are those Chinese adjuster with the spools as well.

hmmm.. well darn

They should make a stand with little nubs on it to fit into those holes!

 

[MrFritz86]

Oh ok
Never noticed there is a back to them
Maybe part of casting process 🧐

yeah someone should definitely make some stand that fit those holes
Don’t how stable would be though, and easy to use

did you find the spools that I mentioned?

We have a thread going on this already, I’ll defer you over there:

CB650R - Rear Spools?

Hi everyone, I just bought a Pitbull 8mm Spool Kit which revzilla says fits on my bike but I do not see any hole where the rear spools could fit. Is there an adapter or something I have to buy to install these spools? https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/pit-bull-8mm-spool-kit Thanks
