    Rear Shock Mount Issue

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for opening my thread, I'll really appreciate any suggestions you can offer.

    So one of my rear shock mounts (upper), is stripped. I really want to get this bike on the road, but I want to do this repair properly. What do you suppose is is best approach?

    I was thinking of chopping off the old mount, welding on a small length of round barstock, then threading it by hand.

    Opinions welcome!

    I had the same thing on my 850. Rethreaded the threads on the mount with a courser threads, replaced nut with appropriate one, been that way for years with no problems. terrylee
