NEV Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I e-mailed these today, either he's having a laugh or has found out I,m a Derby County supporter, seeing as they're on the wrong side of the A52. my e-mail to them. Looking for the price of the full kit of swingarm bushes, rollers, top hats and shims, off a 1992 yamaha dt 125r chassis number 3MD019272. Their reply. Hi Nev Yamaha don't supply a 'kit' for the suspension bearings/collars only the seperate parts. It's unlikely that you'll need to replace every part, but a 'ball park' price would be around £250.00. If you strip the swingarm and check what's required we can give you an acurate price. Somebody please tell me that I can get these swingarm bearings and bushes for at least a third of what this geezer is quoting me, perlease!!! This is the kit I need

LINKY Aye I emailed them over in the states, they told me they don't do my model the pic is just for show, they do the earlier model stuff, Mind you looking at the pic, it looks like the 4 tin end caps are missing

NEV Posted July 4, 2011 Author Posted July 4, 2011 yambits might have them or Wemoto Aye, Cheers Drewpy, have got the bearings and bushes coming from Wemoto, and Yambits only have for earlier models than mine,(80's)it seems the kits don't come with shims, or the end caps, mind you did order some bits from Yambits, the caliper piston and seal kits, and a DT125R locking petrol cap, both no use to me mind as although the petrol cap looked exactly the same as mine in the pic, but its waaaay too small, and the caliper piston and seal kit came with a 35mm piston, I need a 30mm piston, so if anyone needs these I'll do them at half the price I paid for them, that'll teach me for not reading the item description properly,p.m me, as I canna do bugger all with them.
