I did on my 08 GS, ….. My shocks when bad and that extra vibration caused one to break ….. two other Spyders later with no issues ….. your cause may be different … good luck …. Mike :ohyea:Quote:

This is on a friend's bike. First one side that was replaced, then a couple of weeks later the other side... Just curious if this was something common. Thanks for the replies.
Yes it happens. Same place you describe. But not that common. Mostly it comes down to a bad tire or something else the causes a vibration.
Your friend don't need no stinkin' fenders.
I have on my 2013 RT, I threaded both pieces for 3/8" stud to be screwed together and then welded and painted.Quote:
