Fs: 2000-2006 Rc-51 (sp2) Swingarm

bladerunner · #1 (**permalink**) 10-04-2008, 08:55 AM

This unit is off a 2004 RC51. It is a straight replacement for all 2002-2006 fiddyone's. It will also work on the 2000-2001 models with some added parts (do a search).

Comes just as pictured. I had bought this one from a fellow board member in the hopes that I would find another decend RC51 for sale somewhere nearby my new home. It wasn't to be, so I am going to let this one go. These are hard to find as the are annodized, bare aluminum on found on the "Nicky Hayden" bikes. And I'll throw in a set of swingarm spools and a hommade castlated socket you will need to get your original swingarm off/back on.

Don't wait. or it will be GONE....

$175 to your door via USPS ground anywhere in CONUS. First one to PayPal me at: bladerunner70@hotmail.com gets it.

Is the inside of the left axle hole milled out or ground down? I recognize quite a few marks on that swinger which makes me believe I've seen it before.

I hope not, cuz I intentionally didn't sell that swinger cuz I couldn't vouch for the structural integrity of it and didn't want it on my conscience.

But then again, maybe the scratches are just similar and not identical to my old swinger.

The integrity of the swinger is NOT in question. The scratches are cosmetic only.

The scratches are not what I was refferring to when I said the integrity of the swinger may be compromised. The inside of the left axle hole was milled out by sprocket studs. It looks like someone ground down the swinger on the inside so you can't see where it happened. Gimme a sec, I may just pay you to saw it in half.

Good post! You can see where the weld is actually milled down and THAT'S my concern.

Damn! I missed that

Good eye Jami.... that is NOT Good!
The thing I thought was strange as HELL.... if you look at the picture there (Good job Nick

) There is "2" different dias. were the studs and or nuts, made contact with the swing-arm!...
Back to your original question,... is it the same swing arm? Sure does look like it, "just might" "maybe" "possible be"...

Peace boys

OMFG i can't believe you are going at it again. What a tard! I picture a lonely D-bag cast out to the garage by the wife (no one would touch) because the smell of your crack pipe disturbs your baby.
Anyone else picture the same thing after reading this guys posts?
What a phuc!

Blade, I do NOT want to torpedo your sale so please send me your paypal addy and I'll buy it off you. Or better yet, I'll give you the money if you promise to take a bandsaw and cut it in half. I may be a sarcastic fukr online, but I still need to be able to sleep at night and don't want to see anyone needlessly hurt by a defective part.

Plus 1, about NOT wanting to blow up your Swing Arm SALE... However,...
Instead of taking a bandsaw to it,... what about finding someone to FIX\Reweld that bad boy...?

IF you don't have anyone in your circle there.. ship it to me, and I'll get her fixed up for you.
Then, when it's done..... I'll let you know, send pictures and whatever else you would require,..

NEXT: Then, when You have buyer for it.. I'll ship it directly to the buyer!

IF You want it back to You first.... NO problem.

Let me know Bladerunner mang.,

Peace

That would be mighty generous of you Jami. Especially considering that, IMO, you have torpedoed the sale of my swinger. There is NOTHING wrong with the thing people! Yes, someone forgot to put in the left axle spacer and then rode the bike for a short time and the rear sprocket bolts began, yes began, to gouge the interior portion of the swingarm. There is very little metal missing from the inside of the swinger, in a section that is solid aluminum! The area where the spacer rides is NOT damaged and once a wheel is mounted up properly (which I have done) in inside dimensions from side to side are completely within spec. This is a cosmetic issue only! Which by-the-way could not be seen once the wheel/sprocket is mounted. Again, the swinger is SOLID. I would NOT attempt to sell a defective part to anyone. I would never sell a part to someone if I even remotely thought that there was the slightest possibility of the part not working correctly, or that it be dangerous; and I would never attempt to rip someone off. This board has been very good to me over the years, and I would not ruin my reputation here just to make the measily sum I am wanting for a part that is very hard to find.

I bought the swingarm in the hopes that I would be able to find ANOTHER RC-51 and do it up in true BLADERUNNER fashion, but alas I am pretty content with my tarted up GSX-R1000, and don't forsee having another fiddyone in the foreseeable future.

So before you became a Cop, u were a mechanical engineer and THAT'S how you determined that the weld being ground away wouldn't have ANY detrimental effect on the structural integrity of the swingarm ? Cool, didn't know that about your background but I'll Paypal you the funds shortly. Please either ship it to me, drive over it with a semi, take a bandsaw and cut it in half or otherwise prove to me that it no longer can be attached to a bike.

I don't have a degree in zoology, but I can tell the difference between a duck, a monkey, and a jar of salsa.

PayPal away, and I'll gladly ship the swinger directly to you!!
