Started to fit the swinger.Image

Into it now. Pipes off.Image

Dirty in there! No salt on the roads here so hopefully all bolts and bushes and bearings are easy to service.Image

Time to clean up the crank case and remove shock links for service.

Will do more tomorrow night after work, I still have to give the paint on the swingarm it's final cut and buff before I can fit it along with the new rearsets I got.

Don't laugh guys I used petrol and a toothbrush, then wiped it over with wax and grease remover, and then a spray with WD40 and a wipe over with a clean micro fibre cloth.

Came up a treat with a bit of elbow grease. :thumbup:

Petrol and fairy liquid are good, then spray with GT85, always works for me, i do my chain like that too.
