[QUOTE="porterdog, post: 1343690, member: 63116"] Immediately after aquiring my new-to-me '06 200 I tore down the suspension to evaluate the bearings and make sure I had enough grease in there. Had to replace the swingarm bearings, but everything else seemed tight. Until I got it back together! Upon reassembly I could easily feel a bit of play in the system when I tried to move the swingarm up and down. It was quite visible once I looked at the right spot- there was obvious slop in the pivot where the link connects to the frame. "Crap," I thought. "Shoulda replaced those, too...." Now I'm not so sure! This is the link: [IMG]http://houseofun.ms11.net/Misc/bike%20stuff/IMG_2859.jpg[/IMG] And this is where the play is: [IMG]http://houseofun.ms11.net/Misc/bike%20stuff/IMG_2860.jpg[/IMG] The fit of the pivot bolt to the ID of the sleeve is sloppy! Neither the pivot bolt nor the sleeve look particularly hammered on, but there's ~.5-.75mm of motion possible between them. WTF, over? [/QUOTE]
