Bracket
Bracket

Rather than welding broken part I ordered the whole bracket.
The town welder should have no problem removing old bracket and welding on new one right?
I need to remove disc so he can get to bracket, hex nuts, will it come off without removing wheel hub? I maybe able to also move it out of the way so he can get to rear end housing, remove and weld. Any suggestions? Seems a good welder could do this no problem, must be exact Iam sure.....

2007 gsxr fully built race bike
ohlins 25ml front carts, elka triple rear shock, slipper, bodywork painted by myself (murder black), bazzaz fuel tuner + tuning module, quick shifter, ohlins steering damper, vortex rearsets, moto case covers, 1/4 turn quick throttle tube, screen, Michelin power race Va and VB tires (550.00 a set), and the list goes on and on and on and on.

I had another very close call on the track which is why I gave it up. I almost went into a guard rail at T1 (T1 counter clockwise is a very dangerous corner with NO run off, only into the guard rail). I came about 2' from it at about 130mph when my rear tire was sliding due to the cold ambient and track temps, and my throttle hand was getting twitchy to go faster. lol

wadded up 2001 gsxr600 race bike. highside at T8 at grattan. I don't remember a thing and was knocked out upon impact. the only thing left salvageable on that bike was the motor/trans, everything else was totaled.

No bro missed out on thT one couldnt get the weekend off of work. I was there for the 10 years and still sideways season closer. It was pretty sick haf dudes with parachutes fly in. Some fireworks and of course drifting smoke filled the stadium. Awwww the smell of octane and burnt rubber in the morning.
Happy farmin;)

I prefer sideways than in a straight line anyway so its all good.

My 68 Bug got burned down by my next door neighbor.
He worked graveyard and I had a stinger exhaust. Basically a straight pipe. Loud as Fuck.
I worked at 6am. He would bitch and moan about how loud it is when I start it.
Never really cared until I seen him running back to his yard while my Bug just went into flames.
Cops wouldn't do shit about it.
So I took the law into my own hands. People's court advised not to. But Fuck this I said.
He HAD a really really nice lawn until that day my Bug burned down.
Still not sure how someone spelled FUCK YOU with weed killer in his front lawn. And doused all his other plants and bushes.
