SP2 cracked swingarm

Postby Neil McClure » Mon Sep 23, 2013 8:44 am

Just thought I would let you guys know of an issue I have with my SP2 swing arm, a couple of years ago I noticed that the vertical weld behind the left hand front footpeg has a hairline crack up its length, I think that weld is there to prevent the box section from cracking where it is bent. I contacted Honda but they didnt want to know due to the age of the bike 2002 so took it out and had it welded only for it to reappear I going to do the same this winter but with a better welder as I wasnt happy with the original job.
Im just a happy chappy!

Not heard of that happening before! I hope you get it fixed properly this time around. I think I would be off shopping on Ebay for a replacement if it was mine :shock:
