These particular kits repair the bolts on 2014-2018 Honda CBR650F/FA, 2018 Honda CB650F, 2019-2023 Honda CB650R and 2019-2023 Honda CBR650R/RA models.
During normal cleaning and/or operating in moist environments, water enters and migrates to the rear of the swing arm causing the bolt to rust and seize. Consequently, at the next chain adjustment interval, the bolt can break off in the swing arm. This is becoming an increasingly common problem with today's motocross, street and enduro bikes.
Rather than removing the swing arm from the bike, the SWING ARM BUDDY will allow the average rider to fix the broken stud in approximately 10 minutes without the expense of a machine shop, normally required for this repair. It comes with a high-speed hardened drill bit that is used to drill out the broken bolt. You then simply insert the stainless steel threaded block which is permanently inserted. With threads replaced, a new adjustment bolt and lock can be used. And because we use stainless steel, binding and seizing do not occur so next time the bolt wears down, simply screw another one in. Its that simple.
NOTE: Because we are drilling out the broken bolt, the new bolt will have a larger head than the stock chain adjuster bolt. You will now use a 1/2" or 13mm socket instead of the stock 13/32" or 10mm socket
