Help
Was about to take the 60,000m 95 PD for MOT when I noticed there is movement at rear wheel.
Took wheel off and you can still feel movemet - therefore I assume it isn't relating to wheel bearings.
Can't figure out where this wear is - only thought is that the needle rollers on the pivot pin may have play? The joints at shock and torque arm wouldn't give enough movement to feel?
Just over a year ago a Dermant shaft was put in, and I think we had to change the needle bearings as there was something screwed up with existing ones.
Could it be anything else?
Other than the 'fun' getting that ****ing allen key undone and done and the business of getting the shaft lined up to mesh with bevel it shouldn't be too bad a job...ho ***ing Ho.
I assume I can rule out the big wheel bearing jobbie as you wouldn't feel play with wheel off and holding the bevel housing? It would only show if wheel was on?
Have a trip to Morocco in few weeks so need to crack on...and bike has no MOT so going nowhere except my garage for repair
Having spoken to Motorworks is sounds like the pivot bearings - surprise sur****ingprise that works out around a ton for the bearings and the two pivots.
Be great to have some advice to save time
