That looks a lot like a GFR can. I'll go and have a look in the shed later.

While the swingarm is off i am going to measure the distance in the frame where the swingarm fits an will measure the width of the linkage to see if the single swingarm from the aprilia could be fitted, i am also on the hunt for a shock as well, but maybe i can pick a cheap one up from ebay.

Hi

the silencer of the Crono is not the same as on the GFR. The outer cover is stainless steel or at least crome plated steel.
The GFR silencer is out of aluminium.
But the dimensions are the same, so you could use both silencers on both bikes.
Front and rera calipers are the same as on the Nordies. So it might be easy to find something.
The rear damper of the GFR is nearly the same as on the SPs. Same dimensions, but the upper fixing bolt is M12 instead of M10 (if im remember right, could also be M10 instead of M8). Don't know if the Crono has the one from the SPs or the GFRs. You might measure the bolt and decide what you need. It's easy to drill in the bigger hole for the bigger bolt ;)

ciao Joachim

The definitive answer from Joachim. Anyway, here it is. As Joachim says, the same but with an alloy can.
