Hi Guys, Not many of these gsx 750 inazuma's left around but just a word of caution to owners or anyone running one in another bike as they are a nice looking assy. I had a puncture repair done the other day and on refitting the wheel back in to the swingarm i decided to clean the adjusters and all the chain grease off from around the spindle mtg area, to my shock and horror i found the extrusion had split in the corners of the assy on both sides of the swing arm also cracking evident and starting to travel forward to the pivot end by 50 mm worryingly none of this is visible without removing the wheel , I believe the DL 650 although a different set up and not a twin shock uses the same extrusion and spindle clamping set up, so check your swing arms Guys, thoungh there is some deformation on the inside of the arm on both sides sudjesting it might have been over tightened at some point it should not have caused this issue as it's all spaced inside the extrusion and so i can only presume its a fatigue issue in the extrusion. Does anyone know if the gsx 1400 arm fitts between the frame?
