I have no idea really, but is a radius rod, a castor rod and a tie rod the same thing?

a castor rod and a radius rod is the same thing, can also be known as a control arm. a tie rod (end) is different

The mounts on my 1200 snapped off the frame (completely detached) ... twice. This was the side underneath the battery where the acid had weakened it. Surprisingly it didn't result in loss of control; still it's not a good thing.
