Removal of the swingarm
Before removing the parts in question, you must first remove the following parts:
Remove the rear hub as described in “Removal of the rear eccentric hub” in this section.
Free the rear brake hose from the lower chain slider (8) and the speed sensor wiring by unscrewing the bolts (9).
Disconnect the speed sensor wiring connector (A) from the main wiring loom.
You can check the play in the swingarm bearings while the swingarm (4) still installed on the motorcycle frame.
Grasp the rear of the swingarm (4) and try to move it in the four directions shown by the arrows.
Any abnormal movement is sign of worn bearings that could cause instability when riding.
