    350x swingarm pivot bolt, need different length

    I had to have the swingarm mounts reinforced on my frame and now my stock pivot bolt isn't long enough. The stock bolt is 10" (total length). I need one that is 10 1/2" to 10 5/8".

    Does Honda make a bolt close to that for any other bike?
    Does anyone know of a place where they can custom make a swingarm bolt or maybe a suitable substitute?

    Try a local machine shop. It won't be cheap but they should be able to make one.

    Check your Yellow Pages and try some local industrial supply houses. They have all kinds of bolts and different shafts. If you can buy something, it will be ahelluva lot cheaper than having a machine shop make it. Although that is always an option!

    no a 250X is the first true sport 4 stroke golf cart Honda made it first came out in 1987 and soon after Honda bumped up the displacement and added an electric start and it became the 300ex
