He's ok but the bike has problem I can figure out.Some minor parts broken and they have been replace. The problem is he did a stoppie on accident and bike fell over hit on rear right axle I guest hard. Very minor scuff on bolt axle head and swing arm,but the belt is rubbing near the trans sprocket. Replace the belt with a new one still rubbing up front sprocket. Is it possible the rear end is out of line? or that side is bend in? Any suggustion ?
HELP !!!!!! I'm hoping he does have to buy a swing arm for this bike.

I did the same thing on my bike, accidental stoppie and flipped over. Tell your buddy to check the small brace that is on the right hand side of the swingarm to see if it is bent. I bent mine pretty good when I flipped.

If the swingarm is bent I have a used one that I bought just in case mine was tweaked. turns out it was only the small brace that I needed. I will sell it for what I paid... $250, just PM me. It doesn't have the brace on it but you can buy it at any dealership.

Thanks guys I'm thinking its swing arm bolt. I was talking to him today he is going to get the bolt and swing arm brace before he drops $350 for new swing arm.He spoke to speedy had a person that had the same problem. Replace the bolt it was ok after that. Hope he does have to spend that kind money.

Damnut it not up to me he has been trolling forum. When he changes the other parts they don't work I'll remind him of your swing arm. Send me pix if you have one.
