form what i gather there is only one mx style swing arm that will fit and thats because it has a higher mountin point for the shock otherwise it rests on the frame

you would need to get a new mount welded on frame, to fit a mx swinger on

the mx style that fits dont look that nice anyway im not to keen on where the shock mounts to it reminds me of my downhill pushbike

yeh i thought bout movin the top mount but i reckon it will ruin the look of the frame. would have to be a good weld to look the part and im more prone to the hedghog look when welding.

do you know if a subframe off a diff bike would fit the frame as i have snapped the lugs for the seat to sit into. ive found a brand new one for 40 quid but would rather use one i already have it will fit

carnt you just get lugs re welded? im not sure of any other sub frames to fit. for 40 pound buy new.

yeah that is another option think i might paint it red aswell

worse case scenario ill buy one but needto keep costs down the missus is whinging. and ive still got to get some decent forks and rear sus yet and some new wheels and seat and ...................... the list goes on

[ian1]

I've polished my sub frame,so its like a mirror. A lot of hours tho ha ha. Still got bit more to do. Yeh my list is never ending at the moment ha ha

[onthemove]

i was debating wether to polish it uo and the stator cover aswell but im thinking i need some colour in there somewhere. bet it looks good tho

an yeh i better get a night job to pay for all the bits lol its tojust easy
to spend spend spend

i keep gettin distracted 1 min im doing somethng to the engine next min ive seen something fo the frame lol. i need to concentrate on 1 bit at a time.
an then to top it off the bike has taken over the conservatory so that sumat else fir the missus to whinge at.
