Rear suspension.. S40 (swing arm?) (Read 8 times)

musicdorian YaBB Newbies Offline I love YaBB 1G - SP1! Posts: 31	Rear suspension.. S40 (swing arm?) 12/12/06 at 19:03:32 Can anyone tell me if my 2007 S40 has a swing arm for rear suspension, or is it a traditional frame. The Savages are listed with swing arms, but the S40's, are they different or the same. Thanks.

English is so wonderful. The Savage swing fork don't look like any fork I've seen in my life. Terminology for thing are relative; take "C*ckpit" for example, then what do you call it when 2 female pilot is in it? Grin

Reply #11 - 12/14/06 at 02:12:09 Sorry I was wrong, I cheked up and found that when the "swinging arm" was first invented it was called a pivoted fork. Only a two pronged though. Clive W
