Rear Suspension bearing ?

**John** · 8th July 2005, 15:53

Well Breaking my back trying to clean this little homo dick fag bike and noticed my suspension looking abit out of wack? I have pretty funked up eyes so was wondering if anyone else could confirm this? heres the picture..

I cant really tell from that pic but the Top mounting bracket looks like is bending towards, the shock, due to those washers maybe ,,,,my guess is its a different shock ,,,,,,other than that I cant tell from photo

My opinion , on to days market prices, is worth 0.002 cents !

Yea I think your spot on stephen I am figuring that it happened when I landed an incredibly large stoppie, I tried to take some better pictures but they wont come out any better than that one :\. thanks.

I'm not 100% sure and I'm certainly no mechanic BUT, I think you've mistakenly taken a picture of the inside of your telly...

Heres a better edit I think its hard to explain so I wont make a fool of myself trying..

**bugjuice** · 8th July 2005, 16:38

it's hard to say from pics dude.. if it's shot, you'll know it. Grab hold of it and bloody throttle it. If it moves excessively, then may be.. Is the rubber cracked or discoloured around the shocks?

**John** · 8th July 2005, 16:40

Yea the thing is I am wondering about if this was tied into my ragid handling, the rear floats around and such all the time now, think this may be the problem not the bearings I had a look and the swingarm bearings looked good, who knows.. It has rust... alot of rust

If its floating around I'd check the shock over. Probably never been changed, 13yrs of abuse will kill a shock.

**John** · 8th July 2005, 18:01

Yea, I think you hit the nail..

Now to find a shock that would fit... Would most other road bike shocks fit?..
