96 swingarm play inspection


Recommended Posts

Doing a tear down to replace my new shinko 777 to tires that are round. I was checking the swingarm for play, the bike is a 96 royal star forgot to mention. The play noticeable play up and down at the dog bone upper bearing. I couldn't measure it, so not sure how much play.

My questions are.

Should the be play up and down?

When should swingarm bearings be checked and repacked?

She has 30k miles, I've been feeling a little squirrelly in the rear from time to time. The last time i rode she down right scared the crap out of me. She felt like the rear wanted to go the outside of the turn i was on.

Tires are crap and won't go shinko again. Front was out of round and rear had a low spot of center to the right. Less than 1k miles on them.
