Sure is a pretty RK though!

Don, glad to hear that you got it fixed.  As an FYI, 2 friends of mine with older RG's (small swingarms) have had them crack so I would give them a real good once over.

Sorry Don, but had to get into this. So just think a spare RK, what do you think. Only approx. 22k, right. :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:
That shock is looking cheaper and cheaper. :2vrolijk_21: :2vrolijk_21:

Time for a True-Track Don. I put one on Hank's 01 SERK and it made a huge difference, even with that skinny swing arm. Moving ahead, with two bikes, you could pull the swingarm off the SERG and weld some long gussets on the underside of the swingarm which would stiffen it up at least one axis, but ideally your best bet would be to contact our resident trike builder Dean Nelson for an 02-06 swingarm off one of his trike projects. The internals are different as well, but the frame is the same frame from 99-06 I believe, so it should fit between the lower frame lugs that the clevis blocks bolt to just fine.

Thanks Ernie.  There's a lot you just can't see in the bike.  Have seen one of the small swingarms crack before too.  So after the stresses this one had to see it'll get looked over very thoroughly sooner rather than later.  Was nice to find the immediate problem be a simple one though.

I was thinking they should retrofit also Brian.  Will do a bit more homework to confirm.  But am hoping so.  If it is that'll be the weekend project sometime.  Will collect the pieces beforehand and just swap it all out some rainy spring weekend day.

claims fitment for 02-06

That would be the stock fitment.  Have to change everything else to refit earlier (if we're correct about the ability to do so). 18 hours left in that auction...  I'd not planned on scoping it all out today.  Perhaps will get a chance this evening before it ends.
