Swing Arm Bearings

[Sin_Tiger]

OK, Having decided to do a complete rebuild (recorded milage is almost 90,000mls) I am starting to get my collection of bits together before I put it in the workshop to deconstruct it.

I am going to let them do the frame and running gear since I don't have the facilities or space, don't think I can sneek it up 24 floors in the lift as they have recently installed CCTV   Take the panels to a specialist for prep and paint. Take the engine and tranny into the guest bedroom and do that myself, along with the wiring loom and give that a good going over too.

So, starting at the back, what is the collective experience?
1. The bearings will need replacing,
2. just the seals
3. it's variable and you can only really tell when you have it apart?

I will order the sliders 5 & 22, are there any other bits that are a racing dead cert that will need replacement?

Couldn't find anything appropriate searching and I promise I will get as many pics during the job as I can.

Who knows?  This part of the bike was well engineered from my point of view as ther are zerk fittings for easy lubing.  Yours doesn't have these?  I'd expect swingarm bearings to be the very last part I'd need to replace.

I had to replace the needle roller bearing, and sleeve and seals, on the rear suspension linkage on mine. It had failed before I got the bike, but was not  obvious until I dropped the rear wheel to change the chain and sprockets.  You can feel the suspension has play. Luckily I caught it before it started to hammer its way through the ali drag link. This was pt no 3800060-T0301 where the rear shock mounts.      Regards MIMbox
