I have 96' 300ex and when i resently started on a winter rebuild I noticed that the rear of the frame ,above the swing arm, is bent to left side of the bike. I have broke the section where the seat latches onto completly off but don't under stand how the entire frame got tweaked over any suggtions on how too correct needed

I think I'd check a motorcycle junkyard for another frame. That would probably be the cheapest way to get a straight frame. Once you bend it, even if you straighten it, the metal has streched and is weaker, so it's only a matter of time until it bends again.
