It's bugging me now.. i'll make one this week if i get time. I have always got a bike in the house in bits so this ain't a big problem. my sons grass track bike is mostly in bits all over the house.

On to the very dodgy looking swingarm.. it needs welding, it is bent and it need new bushes.

I will be seeing someone at the weekend to straighten and weld this as well as the frame, as i want to get it painted and start rebuilding it

pretty much, arms can wear aswell but the old ally is usually well worn.
