The Lonestar chassis has a bend in that frame rail, so there's no need to worry.

The swingarm is one of Lonestar's weak points, I've broken two of them in the last five years. Keep an eye on the chassis around the footpeg area too, mine have cracked there.

On the main tubes about three inches in front of the rear linkage mount. They usually start on the top of the tube and work their way down the sides. My last one was cracked on both tubes, nearly in half.

Nice R man! congrats!

[Bigun55]

Looks good. You gotta love the R

[Mean250r]

nice ride, good luck with it!

[beak7707]

Nice R, but you better watch that swinger. From what I have seen out of old lonestars once they break they keep breaking.

[bad01300ex]

thanks guys

yea ill keep an eye on the swinger, dont have money for a new one right now

getting all new ball joints, bushings, bearings, PC, a few other odds and ends and a new color combo

what do you guys think would be a good color sceme?

im thinkin about blue frame/white fullbores, but im thinkin that is already been done alot.......

[Pro1200]

Yea I'm doing mine Red/white/Blue ECATV graphics and a set of duncan racing graphics on white fenders with Candy Blue translucent frame and arms, white stem and upper a-arms, candy trans red hubs and blue ringed hipers, pep zps (red/white/blue), and red tag t2's and clamps, with blue and white handguards. Going to look so sick.

You should do the i b racing candy red/white and pink R that Creech used to have looked so sick. Have pictures if you want them of it.

I welded my first swinger after it cracked, put it on my practice quad and has held up ever since, going on four years.
