ok so i laid down my '05 636 on the highway at about 65. walked away cause i had my gear on. anyway i broke the stator cover(already ordered w/gasket), the frame slider is chewed up pretty good and little cosmetic stuff.... except for the swingarm spool. it snapped off. is there a way to reattach the little bung things on the bottom of a newer bikes swingarm. my roommate has a mig. any help on this would be great, thanks.

weld a piece of round stock back to the swingarm, drill, then tap.

mig can weld ally with a spool gun. or take it to a welder to have them do it. shouldn't be but a few minutes work if you have it prep'd.

Props to you for having enough protection.

Hope you also learned something, so you can get through that situation next time without going down.

Yea glad your ok buddy. Watched a guy go down in front of my store last night. I can't stand watching/hearing about that shit. Props for the gear, I never leave without my leather for just that reason

Glad to hear the gear worked. I never ride without it (though I don't do the 1peice leather suit, I feel I'm covered enough)

Cycle gear also has cheap stands (trackside?). I've heard the bolt together ones get really wobbly. I have one of the one-peice trackside stands. They are ALWAYS on sale, and then I found a great sale at the beginning of the year... think it was like $30something + shipping. Regular "sale" price is $49. If you walk into a store, they are $89 unless you take a catalog in with you.

Although, I've heard a few times that a nice stand will more than pay for itself the first time you bike DOESN'T fall over. Around here, the pitbull stands hold their value REALLY well... a blessing and a curse.

those three piece bolt together ones are unstable. i welded mine together, solving that problem

 

[willrob28]
