Rear movement is improved.

I ordered Type 7 from Gun coatOption and received it in about 4 months.
When you hold it, you will see that it is light, about 2 kg lighter numerically.
OEM is Steel Horn Pipe and this product is Material:The stiffness is also considered to have changed because of the figure-of-eyes cross-section of Aluminum.

I asked the Shop to install it at the same time as KOOD's Pivot shaft.
Replaceable from OEM, no new parts required.
Also, it may be an individual difference, but the OVER exhaust bracket seemed to interfere with the Swing Arm and the OVER TT-formura RS, so an additional Spacer was inserted.

Quality, texture
In Gun coatOption, it is Black with Luster and looks much better than the OEM Horn PipeSwing Arm.
The Chain Adjuster also looks cool, but it is a pity that the Axle Block is made of solid wood.
Alternatively, there may be an option to purchase as Repair Parts and color anodized aluminum by yourself.

Ride comfort
We often hear that lightening the underspring is several times more effective than the overspring, but for simple overspring weight reduction, removing Gasoline is the quickest way to go.
We did not feel that a 2kg reduction in Swing Arm weight would make a difference in the behavior of the full Tan condition and on the verge of missing Gas, nor did we feel any difference in the push/pull of the vehicle body.
In the case of # of fuel quantity, you mainly feel the lightness of Handlebar and the lightness of the turnaround.

In theory, the Swing Arm should move more easily in response to changes because the inertia around the Pivot axis is reduced.
Just like when you hold a # stick and swing it up and down with just your wrist, the heavier stick requires more force in Timing to raise and lower it.

After running, we experienced a decrease in Rear thrust due to bumps and an improvement in Rear traction when exiting the Corner.
(Suspension setting unchanged)
Probably due to reduced input to the suspension during contraction, reduced change during extension and contraction, and improved responsiveness of extension and contraction.
Although it was Type 7 without Stabilizer, it seems to benefit enough for city driving and touring.
