Rear Swing Arm play
Laverdaroo:
Bloody hell! :o
Bryanj:
Worth checking at local dealer as Dave Silver is Bout £95 inc.
Yes Roo i agree, unfortunately every one i have ever took apart with play has the collar worn more than the bushes.
The later 390 number part used on the F model that has the single grease nipple on the swing arm is discontinued, guess what------ you can use the early 300 one
Laverdaroo:
Thats a good swerve saved to the memory bank Bryan ;)

Yes Bryan it always seem odd that the softer materials wears the harder one away.
Years ago car clutch pivots made of Nylon would wear the metal socket they fitted into having previously been made of metal.

This tube is called a collar by Honda and is same on 750, 550 and 500.
I could look up the part number for you but that would spoil your fun

Maybe a stupid question but how do you get the old bushes out?
Do I need some special tool?
