That "little" tab is going nowhere, That thing is hard! I Had to sharpen the drill bit twice while drilling it, and the matierial is so much thicker than the swingarm material guage I'm postive the welds would tear off long before the tab would "split or fold".
Also whats hidden inside the tab is a battery terminal nut from a big YTX20, a big blocky thing, thats what the bolt is threaded into. It takes up a lot of space inside the tab area to act as a brace and tie it all together. I'll get a pic up if I can.
