jrpettet Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 The end of last summer the swing arm on my '99 techno basically tore in half. I've had the bike for most of it's life. I don't think i do anything too crazy with it... Has anyone had experience with this??? I've never broke a swing arm like this before. Just talked to a beta dealer close to where i live and he said something like $550 for a new one. Give me a minute and i'll get a pic up...

chewy Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Not a helpfull comment but; can't help but notice where it has broken and the wear/use (from boot heels?). Why not splint it up either inside or out maybe not too pretty but effective. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrpettet Posted January 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 I wish i had some pies to eat... I could use the insulation (it's cold!) I though about splinting it and welding all around, but that seems to questionable for something that sees this much stress. i've still looking for a new one.
