Swing Arm type and shock bushes

<< < (2/3) > >>

Gary 400/4:
Thanks for your posting. I concur with you that mine is probably a JMC version. Your right about a slack chain dragging across the arm. Are you up on the eye bushes for the lower suspension unit mounts? Where can I get them and what do I ask for? A serial code would be handy?

Regards

Gary

David Silver Spares sells the lower shock rubber bushes. KaJa said the standard shocks fit your swingarm.

I used standard Honda rubbers at the top and standard Honda bushes at the bottom, the bottom bushes were a very tight fit in the swingarm, but put it down in part to the unit being newly powder coated. I fitted a 2 tooth larger than standard rear sprocket, and sized the drive sprocket up one tooth, this helped clear the chain from the bracing.

Gary 400/4:
Nice 1 fellow owner I will consider doing the same, what teeth sprockets front and back? The drive chain is a massive O ring affair, definitely ottt for 37 hp? It won't stretch anytime soon, that's for sure. :)

First a word of warning, massive "o"ring drive chains on a 400/4 usually try to grind holes in the gearbox/covers, as there is not enough clearance for the width of the chain, sprockets are hard to find, the drive is 18 teeth and rear is 39 teeth, these are used with a DID chain
