SK5 - Mid Engine Mounting Bolt bent!
 
Well in a crash that occurred some time ago i managed to bend one of the crash bungs that was on the bike when i bought it.

I've finally got round to drifting the bolt that it screws on to out and found it to be bent ](*,)

I'm not really sure what is standard on my bike :S I currently have a bent double ended (each with a thread) mounting bolt that feeds from one side of the frame through the engine and through the other side of the frame...

Im not going back to original...ive just bought some R&G bungs but the bloke at demontweeks didnt know what they were mounted on or whether or not it came with a bar to shove through the engine that the bungs screw onto. ....

Stuck!

I'm pretty sure the standard part would be a nut & bolt that go through the frame & motor. The double-threaded item would probably be an R&G part, give R&G a call, they'll be able to confirm for certain.

This suggests that the R&G product would replace 2 engine bolts?

I bought the bungs of R&G originally on the 6th and had to cancel my order today because i hadn't received any communication from them at all ;(

Apparently i would have been waiting till next Wednesday at the earliest to get them...

Ill give R&G a ring...fingers crossed he's clued up!

Thanks for the help Jambo!

Gave R&G a ring and apparently the bungs come with a replacement rod. Hopefully it will all go swimmingly *fingers crossed*

cheers
