guys hoping someone can guide me here. on my 31k it go what I think a n1 or f1 swing am. not sure how to check but it's def not the original 31 k as its a box section with the slide in break mount.
what I wanted to know have chance to get a f2 arm but seller says it's different to the old type? no idea what he means. does any of the f1 f2 fit into the 31k backend?
thanks

All ypvs swing arms fit in all ypvs bikes.
The lc2 31k arm is box section but where the back wheel mounts is just flanges.
The F1/2/R are box section all the way to the end.
This means the later ones used a longer wheel spindle and different adjusters.
Consequently the F1/N1 had indents in the exhausts to clear the spindle so you can't fit the later arm to an lc2 with the standard lc2 pipes
Hope that helps, Steve

I know he does the seals and bushes for the dogleg a lot cheaper than Yamaha Steve
