If you have a manual for any bike you can read up on doing this job as they're changed much the same way on most bikes, if in doubt buy/borrow or down load a manual for specifics on that bike.

Removing the swingarm and renewing the bearings comes under the 4 spanner rating in a haynes manual...NOT to be done by someone with little or no knowledge.

You really need to get a Haynes specific manual for your bike, then you can see the procedure. Ive just read through the procedure for my XJ900....took me a while to make sense of it. Unfortunatly I havnt a manual for your bike, so cant even start to explain.

All I can say is, if you havnt done bearings on any bike before....this isnt the job to start with. Ive done wheel bearings and head bearings before...not the easiest of jobs.

I did mean a service manual not the owners manual. In the owners manual it tells you to take it to a yamaha dealer to change the oil.
