I'm fine, I cracked a motor mount badly. It's possible to weld and I vary well may do just that, but an extra engine would be excellent and I can build it and use mine for spares. My rear swing arm is road rashed and my head bearing isn't seating correctly because the head stock is a bit out of round.
Yeah its stupid cold out and I took my bike apart once again. So if anyone has an 1125 motor in decent shape or a cr frame priced reasonably I'm definitely looking.......I'd like to have her ready for the dragon in April
 
I don't know of anything except for what is on Ebay, but I'll keep my eye out. The going rate for swing arms really isn't too bad.
 
Yeah I wasn't sweating that nearly as much as the busted motor mount or the loose head bearing. Getting the motor back in, with a lil upgrade, getting the right ecm map and having it actually handle all before the end of April are the main priority's.
 
April's overrated........




















Lol, you know I was bullshitting.......

Get the mo fo ready for Dragon VIII!!!!
 
Ok here's the broken mount:

As to how? Well after replacing the forks I discovered the steering stem was bent. I lifted the front ever so slightly and upon touchdown she instantly did the worst tank slappers ever and we both took a bit of a tumble. This with a gpr damper set to 7. Apparently the po laid it down pretty badly. I'm not sure how you bend a steering stem from falling over in the garage...I'll never buy a bike again that has been dropped "lightly!"

I can probably get the mount welded, but if I'm pulling the engine to take to the welder, I might as well just do an engine swap is my thinking......
 
I have an engine, 7200 miles and a swing arm, small amount of rash on it from where it fell over (after I tboned the car at 40 lol). I bought the bike at 925 miles, and it has always had a wierd noise. Never hindered performance or anything. Bike put down 130.8hp at the wheel last year when I dyno'd it.

Here is a video of the noise.

R and cr swing arms are different to accommodate the gearing changes. Of course if you had the r engine and swingarm wouldn't be a problem other than the speedo
 
Cosworth is right, I don't need an 1125r swingarm. I couldn't hear any weird sound with the engine. Where are you located?
 
Frames only come from a dealer the builder is in palatine IL but they wont sell you one. you have the vin stamped in.
I had one crack under warranty. Right side motor mount cracked $$$$$
