I need a swingarm for a 2002 954RR powdercoated but I'm not sure of the color, definitley not shiny, not even satin but like the newer bikes are coming from the factory. Do you know what I mean?

[Pappy]

Yep, ive done them in stealth black and in a no gloss flat black

[AbnMP13]

Ok, I'm checking to make sure the gentleman will ship it to you. I'll let you know what he says.

[Pappy]

Not a problem.

You still in the sandbox?

[AbnMP13]

Yes Sir, got about 8 more months to go. I'm trying to get this done now so I can switch the swing arms when I come back on midtour leave. Then when I get back for good it'll be ready to ride.

He said he'd ship it to you so I'll look for your address in the threads and send it to him if I win. I'll ask him to properly tag
and do the other stuff like you mentioned. I got to get in there and do some reading on all that stuff.

Does the quotes in the threads include shipping once your done?

Thanks Pappy.

Email me info on payment options please.

[AbnMP13]

Pappy did you get the swingarm yet?

[Pappy]

Not yet, but tuesday was a holiday so no shipping. I iwll post the minute it arrrives for ya!

[AbnMP13]

Aha, forgot about that. Holiday's don't count over here! LOL
Everyday ends in y so they're all the same.

Thanks Pappy.

I got some small pieces (chain/sprocket guard) that I'll get my son to pull off, clean up and send to ya too. Same color, will post when he sends them.

[Pappy]

It arrived yesterday. I will strip out the bearings and such and getr' done for ya

[AbnMP13]

Thanks Pappy!

Working on getting my son to remove a chain guard and sprocket cover to send to ya too.

[Pappy]

Hey just checkin in...wondering if the other parts are being sent or should I just go ahead and coat the swinger? No worries here, just would hate to do the swinger and have the other stuff show up the next day!!!

Be safe, and you boys have a Merry Christmas!

[AbnMP13]

The wife finally mailed them today Pappy. Sorry it took so long.

[Pappy]

No worries here bud, just wanting to make sure they were indeed coming!!

[AbnMP13]

They probably not tagged very well, the wife pawned mailing them off to my sister. Thanks Pappy, Happy Holidays.

[AbnMP13]

Did you get them yet Pappy?

[Pappy]

Yep she did a fine job!!

The small parts are off to burn off and I should have them back this week. Then I will do the whole batch for ya!

[AbnMP13]

Ok thanks Pappy, keep me posted please.

[AbnMP13]

You got my payment right Pappy?

I sent it on Christmas eve.

[Pappy]

LOL..I just looked and I sure did:p You said a date in the PM and I never gave it a thought...sorry!!! I show payment on Jan 24th but no address provided so PM me where you would like this hunk of aluminum sent to:D

[AbnMP13]

I'm about to buy another chunk of aluminum off eBay to send if you don't mind kind Sir. This one is smaller than the swing arm but larger than the chain guards.

I'll let you know when its on the way. :D

[Pappy]

Not a problem bud, I take it the wife recieved the other parts ok?

[AbnMP13]

Yes Sir she did. Thank you much.

After this upcoming piece gets some powdercoating there will be no more aluminum colored pieces on the bike

Thanks Pappy.

[AbnMP13]

Well I won that part, paid for it and then 4 days later the guy sent my money back. LOL said he couldn't find the part. I bought another one this morning and when I get the tracking number I'll forward it to ya Pappy.

[Pappy]

roger that:p

[AbnMP13]

Pappy you should have got that chunk of aluminum today the 21st.

[Pappy]

Havent seen anything as of saturday, and I saw no notice to head to post office. I will report back if it arrives in the next day or so

[AbnMP13]

Site still says its on truck for delivery next business day. Fedex delivering it. Thanks again Pappy.

[Pappy]

Cool deal, im sure it will arrive tomorrow. Sometimes, if i am the only run out here they will just wait a day:p

[AbnMP13]

That'll be alright too. I can't get it bolted up until May anyway. Hey, what you doing up at 0445 anyway?
I'm on the graveyard shift so you should be sleeping! LOL

[Pappy]

In the world here its 8:45:pm

Im to old for guard duty, now I just wait for the dog to growl and then I just open up:o Its much more restfull that way and the mess is easier to clean up in the daylight:devil:

[AbnMP13]

LOL I'm too old for guard duty too. Thats for the youngins'. I just try to sneak up on them young fellars to see if I can catch them sleeping.

One benefit of being on mids is I can watch the football and races. Other benefit is all the officers and big brained folks are asleep.

75 days until I get to come back for R&R.
167 days or so until I get to come back home for good.

[Pappy]

Glad you sepreated officers and brained folks:p

[AbnMP13]

Most definately, 4 year degrees, Med School and OCS don't necessarily make you smart......

[Pappy]

Things pretty much winding down over there now? I dont watch the news or get many updates. Most of my friends that were there have rotated out so I dont get weekly reports:p

[AbnMP13]

Here in Iraq they have, we starting to give more and more control to the Iraquis'.

Afghanistan is a different story...

[Pappy]

Yeah...I dont think your going to run off the people wanting a fight in afghanistan. They dont have jack **** to do in life, and fighting is the way of life for the majority of them. We used to make fun of teh Russians getting their *** kicked by them, but none of us wanted trade places with them.

[AbnMP13]

I think we just chased them from Iraq with all the surge operations of a few years ago and now they in Afghanistan. We do a surge in Afghanistan and they gonna come back to Iraq.

They don't want to fight us toe to toe; but then again nobody will fight us toe to toe.

[Pappy]

LOL...start chasing and drop a nuke between the two:p

[AbnMP13]

Good idea, drop one on Pakistan too and be done with the terrorists.

[Pappy]

Well you be safe....tell everyone we are thinking of them and praying for a safe return for you all

[AbnMP13]

Will do Pappy. Thanks.

PS Glad you moderator of this section. Otherwise we'd get yelled at for being off topic....

:D

[Pappy]

After 6 years on here, some of the best info i've found usually occurs when the thread veers off topic:p

I would love to dicuss my feelings of what needs to be done over there, but if I posted it, people would probably take a very different view of me. When I fight, I fight to win at all costs.

Lets just say that there would be a new middle east by now:)

[AbnMP13]

Yeah, you're somewhat required to be politically correct.

[Pappy]

LOL oh heck no...I refuse to be PC!

I just dont think the internet is the best platform for laying it all out. There is to much room for miss interpretation by those that have no clue:p

[AbnMP13]

I was referring to you running a business and possibly losing customers. Guess that speaks loads of misinterpretation over the internet huh?

[Pappy]

haha yeah it does:p

Im not worried about anything affecting my work load, I just dont have the time or stomach to explain to folks that may disagree with my feelings and that usually leads to typical internet BS sessions:p most fo the peopel I have ever talked to in person, where this topic has revealed itself, agree wholeheartedly, but its not something most discuss openly. If I get a chance, I may pm it to you, not sure if your on a secure conenction or open.....wouldnt want to raise any eyebrows:D

[AbnMP13]

PM it if ya get a chance. I got lots of time to read at night.

[Pappy]

Swinger arrived, but its not in good shape. Looks like someone laid the bike down. One small mount is also broken off on the end of the swinger towards the underside, not sure what it holds on.

Will wait to hear back before proceding

[AbnMP13]

Would you email me a couple of snapshots of the damage please?

[AbnMP13]

[AbnMP13]

LOL, wow. Just to be sure please check the package tracking number. My Fedex tracking number was .

[Pappy]

yep...same number

[AbnMP13]

Aight, let me email that guy. LOL, sorry Pappy.

[Pappy]

No problem here

Kind of glad it isnt your part considering the shape its in!

[AbnMP13]

No kidding, I almost feinted when you told me it had damage and had a broken tab.

[Pappy]

haha..yeah it would take quite a wreck to damage the part you should have been sent:p

[AbnMP13]

LOL yeah, I'm wondering who won a swingarm and got shipped a cradle! LOL

[AbnMP13]

Here it is, it's still for sale! (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/03-Honda-CBR954RR-CBR-954-929-rear-swingarm-swing-arm_W0QQitemZ190258527243QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotorc ycles_Parts_Accessories?hash=item190258527243&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A317%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C2 40%3A1318)

:D

[AbnMP13]

His response to my email:

I'm very sorry, big mistake. My shipping guys saw the title of the part and sent you that swingarm by mistake. I will send you out the correct part today. I would like to ask you to please send back the swingarm. You can just put it back in the same box, and I will send you a pre-paid shipping label when I send you this other box. All you will have to do is stick the label on the box, and drop it off at the nearest FedEx drop off. Please let me know if you will be able to do this, and again, I am very sorry for this mistake. Thank you for your help.

My response:

I'll pack it back up and hand it right to the Fedex guy when he drops off the correct part. I appreciate the quick response.

:D

[Pappy]

LOL no worries...

Ofcourse he didnt use a box, so i iwll shrink wrap it just the way he sent it

:o

[AbnMP13]

New tracking info. (https://www.fedex.com/insight/findit/nrp.jsp?tracknumbers=752723410029343&language=en&opco=FDEG&clientype=ivshpalrt)

[AbnMP13]

Pappy,

You got a package this morning about 0900....:D

Is it the right one this time? :confused:

[AbnMP13]

Pappy,

Did you get the engine cradle for the 2wheler?

[Pappy]

Yup...but im in florida so i can do much more then tell you it did arrive:p

[AbnMP13]

Did you by chance catch the FedEx dude before he left to send that incorrect piece back?

BTW, I'm in the middle of negotiations to buy a quad from a guy in Palm Bay FL. Wish me luck......

[Pappy]

No, it arrived after I left

I just left palm bay:p

[AbnMP13]

Pappy, you sure you don't want to go "test drive" a quad for me?

[Pappy]

i would have gladly done all i could for ya if i would have known:p

[AbnMP13]

Yeah, I didnt think about it when I first read that you were in FL chasing gators. Oh well. Thanks anyway...

[AbnMP13]

Pappy,

Did that second set of aluminum look good? No damage?

Have you had a chance to send the other one back?

[AbnMP13]

How much to powdercoat some OEM 450 wheels?

Would it be durable enough to stand up to a good pressure washing?

[Pappy]

Other part looks ok

Return box will go out today if UPS swings in, if not I will drop it off when I go through town tomorrow

Rims are $25 and do fine, the biggest issue with rims is the lip. PC is tough but will be damaged if riding in rocks where the rim is allowed to contact them etc. I do a ton of rims and havent had any complaints, but I can see damage on rims that are coated. I geuss its up to the person paying for it if its worth it or if the risk is worth it.

[AbnMP13]

Thanks Pappy, the black one needs some pc'd rims.

Check here. (http://www.exriders.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&postid=3526504#post3526504)

Do I get a repeat offender discount?

Also PM me how much I owe ya for the latest chunk of aluminum when you get a chance.

[Pappy]

I will cover your shipping on the rims if that helps:p

Are we doing this new bike part the same colors as the swinger? If so $25 shipped will be fine

[AbnMP13]

Yes Sir they'll be the same color, flat black. I'll let ya know when they are sent.

Just to clarify, I am from Mississippi after all, that's $25 per rim correct? I'll be sending 4.

[Pappy]

Yep thats fine

[AbnMP13]

PayPal just emailed you for that second chunk of motorcycle aluminum. Thanks again Pappy.

[Pappy]

cool beans..and the swing arm is shipped out back to teh seller

[Pappy]

It will ship on Monady for ya

Fed Ex#693967610002104

[AbnMP13]

Thanks Pappy. I appreciate it. Soon as I get the rims I'll send them to ya.

[AbnMP13]

Got some rear hubs should get to ya this week.

In about two weeks got some skidplates coming your way.
2 rear swingers, 2 belly skids, 2 sets of a-arm guards.

[Pappy]

10-4

[AbnMP13]

Ya know Pappy at some point I'm just gonna end up signing my paycheck and sending it your way. Got some front hubs coming your way now too. :D

[Pappy]

LOL...trust me I know that feeling:p

[Pappy]

A set of rear hubs arrived, name on the box doesnt ring a bell but pretty sure these are yours, shipped in from out west?

[Pappy]

front hubs arrived...shipped from Iowa?

[AbnMP13]

Originally posted by Pappy

Dunno the address, got them from a gentleman with the last name of Ford. Does that match?

[Pappy]

No Name, just the addy. I am not expecting front hubs for a 450r in from anyone except you so I am pretty sure its a safe bet

[AbnMP13]

They was supposed to put my name on the box. I'll look some more to see if I can find their address.

[Pappy]

Johnson right?

[AbnMP13]

Yes Sir, that's me. Spray them hubs fire red please Sir. That is one of the colors in your box of Crayola's right?

[Pappy]

Yup!

[Pappy]

All done bud

[Pappy]

Is the shipping addy the same as before?

Were you able to log back in to the site? Email said you could, just havent seen ya post in a few days.

Hope your safe and all over there:p

[AbnMP13]

Same address, got back into the site. Thanks Pappy!

[AbnMP13]

Pappy now I got upper and lower a-arms...... LOL

[Pappy]

No problem:p

[AbnMP13]

It is when you're out of money......LOL

[Pappy]

Alot of us are in that boat:p

[AbnMP13]

I'll be sending them to ya in the next couple of weeks.

Gonna go sell some plasma when I'm home on R&R to support my quad habit!

<Did I mention R&R is only 30 days away now? Not that I'm counting the days or anything....>

[Pappy]

Haha, well best to spill it here;)

Here is your fed ex #693967610002210

[AbnMP13]

Had to buy two sets of tires last week. One for the wife's SUV and one for my son's pickup.

:mad: THAT HURT! :mad:

[AbnMP13]

Pappy,

My son is SUPPOSED to send you a swingarm tomorrow. I've never seen it in person, if it's worth PC'ing then coat it fire red please Sir. Hook it up so it's ready to install when I get back. $65 for paint and bearing plus shipping right?

[Pappy]

Yeah thats fine:p

[AbnMP13]

:mad: As of Thursday he still hasn't mailed the swingarm. :mad:

[Pappy]

Send him a video tape of you blowing some chit up!:devil:

[AbnMP13]

I'm just thinking of strait kicking him right dead in the *****!

Then taking 4 days to do shiY for him......like "Dad, can I have some money?"

"sure son, come back in 4 days and I'll have it for ya....!" LOL:devil:

[AbnMP13]

:D The swingarm finally got mailed today! :D

[Pappy]

Roger that.

The a-arm guards are prepped, early next week i will have the rest done and by then the swinger in here as well

[AbnMP13]

I'd like the swingarm same color as the hubs please. Fire red wasn't it?

What shade of black are you doing the skids?

Satin black or flat black. I'm thinking satin black; it'll make my frame stand out a little more when you pc it white.

[Pappy]

I was intending on doing them in stealth black. satin and Matte colors wont hold up a lick on the skids, but I will do it what ever color you would prefer:p

[AbnMP13]

Stealth black it is; you're the expert. :cool:

One got 7 letters; one got 5; If you hadn't told me I'd never known there was a difference in the pc.

[AbnMP13]

Pappy, before you spray that swingarm (which should arrive any day) check it out and let me know if those skidplates will bolt up to it please Sir.

[AbnMP13]

Bump.

[Pappy]

Got the swingarm today. I didnt want to reply until I had unboxed it. Its an aftermarket correct? I assume its yours because I am not expecting any others in as a single unit. Looks liek it has been repaired but I dont see anything major wrong with it.

There are no bearings , so it will need new bearings and seals

[AbnMP13]

Will those skidplates bolt up to it?

[Pappy]

I will check that for you......after the down pour stops and I can walka skid plate out to my truck where the swinger is loaded to head to stripping:blah:

[AbnMP13]

Pappy are you afraid you'll melt?

[Pappy]

Haha no...but after this weekends GNCC I dont have a pair of dry shoes:eek2: So I am in my old man slippers and teh water is deeper then they are tall lol

[AbnMP13]

LOL, did I mention that in 10 hours I get on a helicopter headed south to get on an airplane headed west? :D

What sux is the 26 hour flight to the states..... :grr:

[Pappy]

I am very happy to hear that!

Yeah the flight across the pond sucks, but do your best to sleep. Hopefully its a comfy commercial flight and not in a noisey transport:p

[AbnMP13]

It's a charter; I'm doing my best to stay awake until I get on that flight........

[Pappy]

Well, I swam out to the truck, and Whitney Houston, we have a problem:p

This swing arm doesn't have any skid mounts lieutenant Dan:p

My advice would be to coat this one and sell it and get one thats ready for the skid plate. It seems to be a good unit etc and with fresh powder it would sell easily.

[AbnMP13]

Where are we at on the skidplate situation?

[Pappy]

arm plates are prepped, swing arm sids are prepped, waiting to get new compressor off teh truck and hooked up then I can motor on towards the chassis plates

See if you can nail down what brand swinger this is, I might (MIGHT) be able to get mounts for it and weld them on for ya

[AbnMP13]

I can figure out how to put one on there.

[Pappy]

Yep, it just slides over the left front of the swinger and bolts in place.

[AbnMP13]

What's the latest on the swingarm?

[Pappy]

Just waiting on hit to have the broken bolt removed. Weekend kind of slows down the work load for most:blah:

[AbnMP13]

LOL specially when you spend the weekends sitting in trees with birds....

[Pappy]

[AbnMP13]

[AbnMP13]

What's the latest on the skids and swingarms (bike and quad) Pappy?

[Pappy]

bike swinger is at stripping

quad swinger is at Kev's ...I will have to ask him if he has that broken bolt out yer or not

the skids are all done...not sure why we havent shipped them, probably because your order is open but i will get them headed out

[AbnMP13]

Ship them how ya want; all in one box, in three boxes, it don't make me no nevermind. I got 60 something days left over here anyway. LOL

How much do I owe ya for the swingarms? PM me a bill so I can get you paid while I still have the money in the bank! :D

Who is Kev?

<just admit that you spend the last few days on the new dirtbike; it's OK Pappy, we all like to ride!>

[Pappy]

Kevin is my younger brother and head wrench...he doesn't allow me to have tools:p

I will just charge you shipping and stripping, I feel bad you got sold the wrong item and wouldn't feel right about adding anything to it for my pocket:p As soon as I get the stripping cost I will let ya know.

[AbnMP13]

Thanks Pappy.

Well I still owe ya for the quad swinger and shipping for both; PM me a price on those please sir.

[AbnMP13]

LOL guess what Pappy?

Got a rear grab bar heading your way 10 June from St. George, UT 84770 .

PC it satin black please.

[Pappy]

10-4

And you should be seeing a goodie box most any day!

[AbnMP13]

I meant to ask you when it was mailed because you mentioned it before I went home on R&R but I haven't seen it yet.

That grab bar should have my name in the to address. If not I'm sure there will be a invoice in the box.

[Pappy]

We mailed it towards the end of last week once you stated you were back in country.

[AbnMP13]

Whew! Then it didn't get lost. Give it about 10 days to get here. I just hope my cool guy toy hasn't been redeployed to the states yet. That way I can slap a sticker on it and take a picture for ya. Alot of the units have started leaving here.

We got less than 60 days left in country! :D

[AbnMP13]

Could I get an update on the street bike swinger, quad swinger, did you get the grab bar yet?

And how much do I owe ya for both swingers and the rear grab bar please?

[Pappy]

No...didnt have much time to go to town today(have to leave for NY ) so I have no clue what they will charge me to strip the swinger so I cant give you a solid qoute

Havent seen the grab bar as of today, but will kep an eye out. After monday I will finally have 5 straight days to work without national races so i intend to knock out everything here so I can be clear for my vacation:p

Thanks Pappy; I'm removing my son from my will. He never told me they were delivered. :D

[Pappy]

bahahaha:D

[AbnMP13]

Can you molycoat?

[Pappy]

Yeppers

[AbnMP13]

I read that if a swingarm pivot bolt is molycoated that it prevents it from seizing/rusting.

Any truth to that? :confused:

[Pappy]

Thats what it does alright

I dont know of any atv coating folks that have done it as long as I have....and we havent had any issues with any I have done.

[AbnMP13]

PM me a price would ya? I got two brand new bolts.

[Pappy]

If you can get them here pretty quick, $15 each. I have a batch building and can do them as soon as they arrive

[AbnMP13]

Let me check and see exactly where they at....

[AbnMP13]

Two of them are headed your way from Sagle, ID via UPS.

Should ship tomorrow, I'll forward tracking info to you as soon as I get it.

[Pappy]

Roger that! And thank you!

[AbnMP13]

[AbnMP13]

[Pappy]

[AbnMP13]

Aight, it's been a week so don't let me hold you up on finishing that batch.

My supplier is usually pretty reliable but I guess everyone has a bad day.

Thanks.....

[Pappy]

Its no worry bud, the project the other batch is for isnt in any rush as its a serious project that has to wait for me to have the free time to do it haha

Swi9ng arm has arrived, bearings are now out. Looks like they are in good shape so re-using them shouldnt be an issue unless you have a new set to install
