As long as nothings twisted, I would say your alright, but be looking for a replacement and maybe some swingarm sliders :S make sure its not twisted and im sure it would be ok, as long as its not on a part of the swingarm thats curved for structural stability.

be carefull, good luck,

Chris

and uh ^^^^^+1... what you do?

i looped again and when it fell, the bolt that holds the footpeg on punched a samll hole thru the swingarm. i gotta figure a way out to either strengthen the braket or fab some swingarm sliders up. i'm getting a better feel for the rear brake though
