Afternoon All,
As some of the long term owners may remember, a few years back a muppet borrowed my original 2005 MT and stacked it into a kerb at high speed. Part of the deal left me with a sad look ing MT that i planned to look at turning into a track bike at some point...
Fast forward a few years and things are finally moving forward at last! I've got most of the replacement bits but whilst moving it into position in the garage i noticed a definite tilt to the rear subframe. Now, i assumed that it would be some box section ally struts but closer inspection shows it's quite a hefty lump do either i need to dismantle it to see if it can be straightened or replace the rear end with something else? Does any one have any experience with attaching a different rear?
As i currently have 2 other road going 01's i've decided to make this a track only so i'm not worried about it passing an MOT!
Cheers
Nat
Hi Nat I'm sure you can fabricate and bolt on what ever you like
Hi Nat,
The rear subframe is easy to strip down. Once you have the exhausts off there's just a bolt holding it to the main frame. It's cast aluminium so might be fun trying to straighten it but worth a go. If it doesn't work, as Rocker posted, you could fab a replacement reasonably easily.
