After looking at it more, it may be from these guys. I'd ask them...

Looks like it's a nice bike be sure to hit the new owners area and introduce yourself and post some pics to show that bird... I agree with @Dustin02 it looks like the swingarms I've seen listed fir sale from all things chrome but that'd be just a guess as im not much into the wide tire bikes but some do look really good when done right.

Hi. The bike has a wide tire like a 300 30 17 or a 360 30 17 so they run a short chain to a 2nd sprocket in line and right behind the output SHAFT sprocket then a SHAFT connects am other sprocket with a chain to the rear sprocket to clear the wide wheel.

@WuzzaCBXRider
thank you for correcting the term "jackshift" to "jackshaft" itself
@michael parris heuberger
thanks for the explanation - exactly such a very wide swing arm I already had on my lift. (july 2013)
see my post here
@all
a small example of how much Google Translate ("GT") translates absolutely nonsense - especially when it comes to technical terms.
"GT" translates "jack shaft" as a tool for cars to lift them for a tire change (jack) and then attaches the translation for shaft there to a single, combined one word that then makes absolutely no sense. (a shaft inside a jack or so)
So you have to be extremely careful when using "GT" - especially in terms of technology.
