Hey this is my swinger I just painted checkered flag to match my Day in the Dirt graphics. It came out pretty good, not perfect up close but it will look great on my bike with my freshly rebuilt iShock

Let me know what you think, I am going to put 3M clear vinyl over to protect it. pics of the whole bike in about two weeks...

TwoBros-OneTen · 10-22-2009, 02:58 AM

Need to know three things to help with the bearings:

1. Swingarm bolt OD
2. Swingarm hole OD
3. Depth of the area in mm where the bearing seats in the swingarm

Yes ..
They will read the code off of them to find you something .

Fyi -- If your bearings aren't really bad ? You can remove the dust covers to clean and re-grease em ....

TwoBros-OneTen · 10-23-2009, 03:26 AM

for sure, well they weren't too bad until I tried they had to get banged out. They are still usable but I may replace them depending on price.

I was going to take pics of it one day and I decided to go hit a step up in my neighborhood and that is when my rezi hose shot oil all over my leg and blew my shock in seconds.

But in a few more day's I'll have it back and freshly rebuilt

and then a few more days I will have my mod motor from ktmkslx!

and then a few days after that it will be time for mid size of the month, VOTE FOR THE CHECKERED SWINGER DUUUUDE!

sano will sell you the bearing call them , if you want to save a few bucks go to a local automotive bearing retailer with one of your old bearings they will read the bearing number off the side of the bearing and your off.
i do this all the time to save money and the quality is often much better then the ones that come with things.

Nice I think I am going to try this, I guess I'll look for some online cuz I'm not sure of any around here haha. Would they by chance have tapered bearings? I need a top tapered bearing for my pitster pro front end.

Call these guys. www.motionindustries.com

Give them the numbers and they will ship them to you. Also ask if they have a local reatailer in your area. Then you could just pick them up.

I use them exclusively for all my bearing and seal needs.

We buy thousands of dollars at my shop where I work from them every month.
