600rr rear subframe tweaked - Advice needed.

[moto-ufo]

Hi all, can I take a crowbar and bend this thing back? One side is higher (by about and inch) and actually makes my seat tilted up a little on the right side.

What about a race shop (where or who that would be I have no idea)? Would they be able handle something like this? I know they can check for frame alignment, etc.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

Just get an aftermarket subframe for ~200 and save a few lbs. in the process. http://www.r-r-racing.com/subframes.html is where I got mine.

You might want to get the whole bike measured for straightness if the subframe is tweaked that much. Do a search for gmd computrack, I've used them in the past. It was significantly more than the subframe I mentioned.

Sorry I was so short before,I had a few beers and I usually don't post then.

get on 600rr.net and wera.com and look for a new one, i got one off ebay back when i had one for $155 shipped. the twist back in to place method is iffy, last time i did that it went back to tweaked after a few months,

Thanks for the tip. Ironically, I used to live right near their Scranton location...now I live over 5 hours away.
