Swing Arm Mount Removal

[Andy]

Have any teams been able to remove the swing arm mount from a Honda F4i? It would save a lot of weight and create some more free space if it could be done. I'm not sure if there are oil passages anywhere within the mount. Any feedback would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

We grinded off the swing arm mount on the F4 motor.

There's nothing under there. We machined it off our F4 and F4i engines.
