Moderator drewpy Posted September 27, 2009 Moderator Share Posted September 27, 2009 I thought you could replace bushes like the xs i have. usually they are made of nylon plastic but I have a set of bronze which keeps things in check. you might be able to keep up with me on the twisties then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joshua2 Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Replacement bushes can be fitted to your swing arm. Another case of your battery needs a new bike syndrome. To help the new bushes last longer it would help if you lost 50lbs of ugly fat. Cut your nose off. ATB J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator mervin Posted October 1, 2009 Moderator Share Posted October 1, 2009 i think they use the same bushes as the aircooleds and the XS,s so should be easy to find merv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimR Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 i think they use the same bushes as the aircooleds and the XS,s so should be easy to find merv That is true but the arm just need shiming ( 2402212700 ) from here loadsa play at the rear wheel can be removed with a couple of extra shims and a few mins to fit Regards Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
