Awesome man you just helped me to much fr
Having the same problem with an xr650r. I like the idea, although i was hoping to find a solution to help with the drilling part. My idea was to make a steel jig that goes on place of the axle blocks. To keep the drill centered. But that would be quite a bit of effort. I'll probably just get brave and free drill it one of these days.
@@grigorirasputin996 The jig does sound like alot of work. I think the issue it'd have is the drill bit bending slightly under the pressure and wandering off centre (I've had this happen with my drill press on various things before). Atleast by hand if it starts to wander off centre you can manually correct it by angling the drill. On mine it wasn't so bad with the first pilot hole, it got more difficult with bigger sizes. Keep in mind, you have a little bit of leeway as the swing Arm Buddy hole is bigger than most factory bolt holes so if you're slightly off centre you'll still be ok.
can you ride the bike safely even if you broke the adjuster?
@@EG-tp9vi I definitely wouldn't recommend it. You can damage the bike badly
