oh that's my thread...

i felt in love ... with an iron horse yakuza frame.

there's on question:
does anyone know, if there's a difference between the 05 model and the 06/07/08 models?

i find a lot of pics from the red 05 model with broken rear end. and no pics of the newer ones. i think the dent for the cranks isn't as big as the older version.

can anyone tell me something about it?

if someone has a frame from 06/07/08 in size medium in good condition
please write me, i will buy it!!!

Hey Bommelmaster, yeah the 05s I guess had a problem with the swingarm snapping but Ironhorse fixed it for the 06+ models.

are any popular?

They don't have any weak points that I know of. Mines on it's fourth year and still strong. What do you mean by popular?

As far as I know mine isn't cracked there, unless it's invisible. Is that a crack in the welds? I can barely see it. That sucks though.

no cracks at all

yes the crack is in the welding. i removed the painting on this area.

@ ross you sold your frame on ebay right?

i had cracks all over the place on my small front triangle, i think the rears cracks from bad bearings and a loose pivot.

Mine's cracked on the swingarm, but I'm still riding it. There's a picture of it in my album somewhere.
