I was looking for a replacement swing arm on e-bay, as mine was rusting out. Was expecting to pay well over $100.00. Pinwall has over 10 of them listed for $21.95 each with free shipping. I ordered one and received it Fedex in 3 days.
It's a large 25lb package. Can't see how $21.95 even covers shipping.

I know a guy threw 5 of them in the trash.  With all the triking going on they are a dime a dozen.

I got one from a trike. Sent it to Punisher. It's on DDT's bike now.

I got one plus a whole sheet load of related/attached parts back in the day for $40 as I recall.

Shortly after, the kickstand switch came in handy to replace one on Ike's 2001 Standard which was broken by a careless jack at a Tech Session. The swingarm, a final drive, frame rails and other parts hang around just in case they're needed - all were gotten cheap and none are currently available from Honda.

The plan always has been to ride the F6 line until I can't ride any longer, and a nontrivial amount of spare cash has been invested in a stash of service consumables plus the random oddball component. I don't know of too many other motorcycles worth doing this for.

Before you pull it apart make sure you have the tool for the swingarm bearings. They can be dangerous if not installed correctly
