    Rebuilding a swing arm?

    By the way, there are no stops inside the swing arm housing. You must just have to tap them flush with the housing

    Evening all I have a newbie question I'm looking at getting a 2+2 aftermarket axle.. I have an 02 quad. So it doesn't have a rear disc brake set up. If I were to use awk's rear gsxr brake set up, can I use the same carrier? As if I were to switch to the 03+ rear set up I would have to...

    I think I have brought the wrong bearings again! Are the pre03 carrier bearings different from the 03+? Or are they the same? Cheers Dan

    Front wheel bearings

    Ah balls! I wondered what the extra large dust seal was for in the 02 kit.makes sense now I ordered the wrong set. Ill order a set of 03+. Why we are on the subject, is it worth upgrading the front discs to waveys whilst I'm rebuilding the fronts? Or are the stock discs ok? Cheers Dan

    Front wheel bearings

    Right! I have a question, I hope it doesn't sound stupid. When I brought my mish mash blasty I thought it was an 03 onwards but with your help you clearly noticed it wasn't. So... The person before me fitted 03+ hydro brakes. I have stripped and repowder coated the frame and I'm...

    Rear grab bar

    The dog of a blasty I brought has a bent rear grab bar. Only problem is it looks to me as of it has been welded on? Are the earlier models able to swap rear bars over or has the last idiot welded this one on himself ? Are all of the grab bars the same from 88-06? I found on ebay a uk...

    Brakes!

    I've had a rethink about this blasts. I'm still going to be restoring her but rather then getting it straight and then stripping to powder coat etc I've decided to strip it back the frame, get it powder coated and then work from frame up replacing every bearing etc. So I shall keep you updated

    Brakes!

    Oh great! So I have a pre 03 blaster! Good job I didn't pay too much for this one! As I have hydro fronts.. Well kind of. There just not working yet, is it possible just to keep the pull cable style rear brake? This bike isn't going to be used for racing, just recreational riding. I...
