Yea, thats def the way to go with the swingarm man. Guessting an already weak swingarm isnt worth it really. I say reselling or keeping it tucked away as a just incase maybe worth it-but selling its better.I have seen lonestars and such and you aint lying they are $$$$ Shoot you think 700's bad ive seen them for up to 1200 depending on what model and where ya buy it from!
Riding sounds awesome, could go for an entire weekend with ease soon as I fix my junk. My brother finally got a job so the Zuk will be fixed soon (hes paying for all parts) and we should have it up and running I hope, the old motor ran out of oil b/c usually like all the 230s the crankcase bolts snap off or get screwed up and not put back in. Plus the thing needed a rebuild, was burning about a quarter of a qt every 3-5 rides. I lent it to a friend and forgot the oil level was low and it threw the rod and piston. I have a newer motor thats like 3/4 of one i got cheap im gonna have to take the old parts and the new parts and play Dr Frankenstein here. Thought abot boring it, but its pretty powerfull as is imho.
I know Avy really wanted to load up and go when we last talked about it. We can find an old minibike for him lol.
