I need some help. I broke a swing arm this weekend and need some help with the repair. Does anyone know if there are any companies making a swing arm and/or drive shaft for this application. Also does anyone have any further information on the change drive conversion or price and availability. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Check my profile for images of the broken swing arm.

Mickey Dunlap do you have your bike back with the chain drive conversion and do you have a contact for them?

 

damn... I seen a 400 kawi years ago in the shop that looked like that. I thought a 18 wheeler parked on the rear end.

 

u got to tell how that happen

 

I had a swingarm in that condition on my 650 a couple of years ago. It wasn't pretty either. When I got up off the ground and I saw one back tire in under the engine and the other sticking 2 feet behind the racks, I knew I'd be walking home!!

 

You will spend over $5000 for a chain drive, but I do have a new front swing arm part you need.

 

That front swingarm casting cost me $550 Can. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

 

I was jumping a 30ft double and when I landed it broke and stopped me instantly. I was running third on the first lap. I was second in the holeshot to a yzf450 that had a lot better line than me. There were 7 yfz450's, 1 honda 450, 1 raptor and 2 400ex's. If no one else has any solution I am going to have a steel one made and if anyone else is interested I will see what we can do about getting them in bulk. Also Does anyone know about the drive shaft because mine is broke in half and I don't have the bottom half.

 

Dang I am glad you are ok!!! I ride a Vforce also and cliped a stump recently. There is some powercoat cracking on the front piece of square tubing that holds A arms. Still not sure what I am gonna do about this. I have ridden several times since and there are no signs of it moving or the frame cracking. Just seeing since you ride hard if you had seen this. Thanks!!

Also was their any sign that it was weak or did you just find your self in the dirt?

 

Glad you are OK. The swingarm looks thin.

 

When mine broke I didn't like the look of the casting; it appeared a little porous (and thin).
