evenin all :D
last night me n Camilla was out on the bike and it felt as if the back tyre was flat as it felt a bit wobbly at the back. checked tyre pressures this mornin and all were ok. 40 rear 35 front.
been out on it today and the back still felt a bit wobbly. any ideas what it could be ? im thinkin maybe swingarm bearins. if it is, how do i check em to make sure their ok.
cheers all 8)
Check your swingarm isn't cracked like mine did! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :roll:
That's exactly what the 'Bird felt like when I tried non-standard taper bearings in the headstock. Check there first cos I know you've done them recently. Tapers are trickier to set up.
cracked swingarm :shock: :shock: :shock: were did it crack ?
ill check the head bearins tmora bob but it only feels like its at the rear half of the bike ?
we need to know what wheel and more importantly forks do you have ?
i have on there mustang, the spoked wheel from a 2004 tiger and the front forks i think are kayabas ? theyve got drain screws at the bottom on a 1994
wheel bearings?
just been outside and had a look and all the bearins seem ok. im startin to think that perhaps its the tyres causin probs as they are almost on the wear line and they have done around 10000 now. cant say ive had tyres cause handlin problems before so i didnt think to look at em until this mornin

Is your rear shock also from 1994?
it is jet but i rebuilt it when i rebuilt me bike the other year. so im rulin that out.
Rybes it cracked at the wheel clamp. Most likely its tyres though.... Tigers dont like bad rubber...
Hope you get it sorted
