Live to ride Ride to live Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 my manual says take to a yamaha dealer any other help,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlydan Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 my manual says take to a yamaha dealer any other help,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
