I went to the local bearing supplier with the old ones.

Total cost of swinger and linkage bearings plus seals was approx $150 Aust!

Money well spent I thought. :thumbup:

Re: 900rr swinger brace

Like hawk says, do the bearings while everything is apart! The last thing you want is to have to pull it all apart, and also bear in mind that the extra stiffness will more than likely apply extra load to the bearings. I could be wrong on that point, however it makes sense to do them whilst everythi...

The throttle housing is cactus.

I will go to the bike wreckers and see if I can get one.

There's A Bad Boy In The House!

Mr Muscle in a spray can is the go. Spray it on, leave overnight. Scrape off all the muck then use varying grades of wet and dry until you get the finish you want. I usually start with 800 and then progress to 2000. Use a good metal polish to finish off. Don't despair at the tarnishing as the wet an...

Re: Started another job "Bad Move"

Works a treat. Then polish with varying grades of wet and dry, polish and hey presto it's done. Then it's ...
