Okay that's enough struggling, time to ask. I am trying to remove the worn out bushes from a CB350F swing arm. Does anybody know an easy way of doing this as they are well stuck. Cheers all.

Trigger:
There is a thread somewhere that i posted a picture on how to do this but, i can't find the bugger. Think it was Mr T that was asking on how is it done.

royhall:
Found it, thanks Trig.  http://www.sohc.co.uk/index.php/topic,7574.0.html

Hi Roy,

Strangely enough I was doing the very same job yesterday afternoon. I used a bit of heat, a vice and a couple of sockets on the shock bushes. Haven't attempted the swing arm ones yet as they look to be in pretty good condition.

Good luck with it.

Hi Tim. The shock bushes a really easy. Two sockets and some thread bar and out they come (bit of a soak with PlusGas helps). Not sure how to get the swing arm bushes out. The page I mentioned above is really for the 400 four, they are plastic and real easy to cut out. Ours in the 350 are steel (or something similar), and mine are well worn and really stuck in. Must be a technique for removing them, somebody will know.

By the way, got some spare fork shrouds if you want them. Olive green ones, but they need painting anyway. Were your forks really rusty behind the headlamp ears?
