I also broke my stock 400EX swingarm and bought a Lonestar. My friend did the same and his Lonestar broke last month. These were bought around Aug.'00 and are of an older Lonestar design. He received a free replacment this month and is noticeable better in design.
I'm just waiting on mine to break so I can send in for the newer design too.

You should checkout Houser swingarms i think they are probably the best out there other than Walsh but Walsh is way backed up on orders so is Laegers

I am in desperate need of an aftermarket swingarm.Snapped my stocker. I was warned against a Lonestar. What experiences have you all had with the various brands. I really want to get one soon or at least order it by tomorrow night.

I would go with ROLL DESIGN. I hear they are backed up and dont get me wrong, they are expensive, but worth the money. Definately.

I'm running a fairly new companies swingarm and it is really nice. It looks alot like the houser but is a little more beefy. They can be reached at 1-702-433-9414. Speak with Jeff or Randy. I believe the price is around 560 powdercoated.
