That is just not right, looking at the way those holes are drilled it would not take to much stress to crack them. I would never use something the took load with holes above or below, that is trouble right there.

Sucks dude. I'm gonna check on mine. Mine has the
Three wholes in a straight line.

go with Soupys Adjustable lowering links this time !

X2 for soupys, just got mine last week

 

[biglubusa1]

i didnt feel it while riding... i pulled the bike out of the garage and i backed up for a second and just saw the link swinging. i actually have the soupy's links but the way my swingarm is built the underbracing wouldnt let them fit.

 

[Merlot]

The more holes,the weaker that lowering link will be.Strongly not advisable,better get one with lesser holes.
Or better and harder quality type of metal.

Sorry about your loss,luckily you discovered it before hard riding.

 

[Strife]

Soupy's or Brock's adjustable is the way to go.

Threaded one hae been known to snap also. You also should ask what type of Billet are they using?

Thank you Gixx1300R i was going to say the same thing
and yes i have seen it happen to the threaded ones , i just couldnt find the pictures of it

 

[KILRBUSA]

also i will say the bolts may not of been really tight on those allowing it to work its way back and forth and break the swiss chesse holes!!

personally I think most of the products that company sells and slaps their name on it is pure junk!

+1

I put their lowering kickstand on my '06 but that was the only product they make that didn't look like cheap crap.
