Question 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
