Has anyone here done a rebuild on their swingarm?
I have noticed that I have a very small amount of movement in mine and would like to replace the seals and bushes whilst I am getting other things done, are these pressed in or are they a piece of cake to do?

Thanks for any replies...

Cool, Thanks.
Pulling all bushes, bearings etc out as I raced my last enduro and it's time to check the thing over and replace even if they are slightly worn, I figure it is cheaper to do it before it really needs doing rather than wait till they are chopped out or something stupid...


Thinking of buying a second hand 450 just so I can do some of the grass tracks, The Raptor isn't really suited for them and I want to keep it as my enduro/trail rider.

Not down here, we don't have enough competition down here with bike shops to get great deals.....dosn't help that the same people own a majority of them either...

Geee, that was big of them dropping it that much..

1 good thing about having to go to melbourne a lot for my sons hearing issue is that we get to look around at other shops, the price difference is unbelievable at times...
