I understand the concept- what keeps the engine from flopping over when a hard turn applies kentic energy to the heavier mass? The reason a sprint car uses a Jacobs ladder or a Panhard bar is to keep all the moving articulating components tied together. I think you'd need a strut or something similar. On that theory- wouldn't a Heim @ the swingarm hinge point do a similar action?
