Paul57 Posted Saturday at 02:00 PM Posted Saturday at 02:00 PM Hi all newbie here, I had a low speed fall a few months back breaking my toes and knee cap. My toes broke the gear lever which I’ve replaced 👍 my question really is the rear subframe slightly set more to the right as you look from behind the bike ? looking at the workshop manual it does look that way. I’ve got new exhaust foot peg hanger for the left side as well as a new subframe if needed. The foot peg bracket looks straight and the mounting points also look to be ok and not bent. 1
gstallons Posted Saturday at 03:57 PM Posted Saturday at 03:57 PM Please define "subframe" ? Swingarm , rear tail section , etc. ?
gstallons Posted Saturday at 04:54 PM Posted Saturday at 04:54 PM Ok ! If it looks bent , it probably is bent . take your tape measure and measure and start looking. Verify 1 1
docc Posted Saturday at 08:18 PM Posted Saturday at 08:18 PM The frame dimensions are shown in dimensional drawings in the workshop manual. Unfortunately, I'm not near mine right now. Welcome, @Paul57! [Watch for this topic to move to Technical Topics (just housekeeping).] 1
Pressureangle Posted Saturday at 11:13 PM Posted Saturday at 11:13 PM Mine's apart but with the trans and swingarm out; it appears that the subframe is symmetrical along the frame spine axis. 3
docc Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago I see from the frame diagrams in the Workshop Manual that the rear tail section support subframe is very slightly asymmetric, i.e. 1.0 cm offset. 1

Expand Mine still has the little plastic bit under the end of it attached, I'll see tomorrow about removing it and trying to get an accurate measure to some meaningful points, or a clearer eye view at least. 1
