Greasing the swingarm.

<< < (5/5)

Bradders:
Bought a new flexible hose for my grease gun and to my surprise it worked! Nice new grease in there now. It was a sod to get back off the nipple though. Thanks all for your advice. Now on to the calliper pin.

K2-K6:
For the caliper arm, if you undo the two caliper fixing bolts (they hold the two half of caliper together) you can then assess the arm by pivoting it in situ. It'll give you a good idea if it's stuck initially and give some idea of what's needed.

The caliper only has fluid in the outside half, so no leaking. Just don't pull the brake lever while dismantled.

Bradders:
Thanks K2-K6. I took the caliper apart and the arm was moving quite freely. Should of put the caliper back together but instead took it all apart but couldn’t get the pin out of the bracket. Bryanj said it may need drifting out but will have to do that another time, I didn’t want to break something.
Have put it all back now , just having slight issue stopping the pads rubbing on the disc.
