Title: Lubricating swing arm and suspension
Post by: amissionsix on August 24, 2005, 10:33:59 AM
How often do you guys lubricate the rear suspension linkage and the swing arm bearings?  And do you usually do it yourself?  I know the Clymer manuel says to do it every 4,000 miles, but it just seems like a lot of parts to take apart.  Thanks.

I would be surprised if anyone has actually lubed theirs at that interval or even at all. They are not hard to do and it really does not take that much time to remove the parts.
