CB750F2 ..... shock mount lower rubbers?

<< < (2/2)

Success! And no violence needed...

Went the same way as suggested by Woodside ( and thanks to all who offered suggestions ) with one minor variation. Rather than burn out hte rubber, I used an old 3mm drill bit and just drilled through the rubber around the circumderence and pulled out hte bits in between until I could get the centre out. Then hacksawed most of the way through the outer sleeve and punched it in with a chisel. Then the oputer just fell out.

On one I slightly marked the swingarm as the cut went just through the sleeve, but it's not a 'cut'...more a polish mark. I also made sure I cut through on the area where the mount is welded to teh swingarm...as there is a lot more 'meat' there in case something went wrong.

Quick...painless....and as the weather was nice.... the swingarm was hung up on the washing line and painted. Looks nice!
