Ok, everything I'm reading about the KDX linkage bearings going bad is scaring me in two different ways.
1.) Is this really a common problem that these bearing go bad? I though these bikes were bullet proof. I'm a little worried because I want to buy a new KDX this summer.
2.) From looking over the kawasaki parts diagram, It looks like my 02 KX250 has a very similar linkage and some of the same bearings. I don't race anymore, only play ride at the MX track and I never pressure washed my 02' KX250. I'm going to tear into my linkage soon and was wondering what I'll find..same problem..???
P.s. I was planning to use LubriMatic marine corrosion control and trailer wheel bearing grease...
