Go to front page, click on FORUMS, go down to workshop, click button then type new thread, not thick, you don't know till you ask.

Don`t understand, posted on workshop about swing arm and got the message "copied thread" by Cynic

Ah you see your not supposed to just copy your question across from one thread to another, it just gets confusing if you do that, Cynic is right that it's a copied thread, I suggest you find a way to ask a similar question not just copy and paste, a few photos as well would help as it's easier to give advice if you can see what's being talked about.

Good choice, I had a DT50mx as my first bike at 16, rebuilt one last year to go in my front room aswell.

Swingarms are hit and miss, I've broken some that were rotten and some that weren't, I don't have any left but they do turn up on EBay from time to time, usually around £30 posted.

Thanks to all for your kind words of welcome.

Going to paint frame and other bits today.May post some pic`s later.

Funny how the deeper you get into this restoration lark the more work you find to do.

Cheers again to all
