Got my stretch on but with the rear shock out of oil I need a strut ASAP. Anyone got something on hand? I have the M2 swingarm so I am thinking it needs to be about 17" in length. I can buy one for about $100 from Pingle but need it for friday. Please call me if you have something 480-766-6347. Thanks

If you have a metal shop around get a flat piece of aluminum I think it's 3/4" thick maybe an inch by about 2 inches and drill the holes where you want them. I have considered doing this on mine to cut down on weight but my strut doesn't weight much. It would probably be pretty cheap also.

Hey Will, that is exactly what I plan to do after speaking to a couple of other racers too. Unfortunately there is no t-n-t this weekend. Hope So Cal is treating you good
