TOPIC:

When I had Maxton suspension fitted front and rear on my Saturno it was pointed out to me that the swinging arm had some movement and new bearings were required. The movement is not too bad but I intend to do as the experts tell me(!) so does anyone know the relevant bearing specification? Cheers.

we are talking about the 2 bearings at the front end of the swing arm connected to the frame plates?

INA Gelenklager GE 18-PB

That's what i have found in a post of mine from 2009 in the german forum.
No waranty And i did not know how to translate Gelenklager.
My swing arm is still on its way to be repaired since that time.
Thanks for remembering me to ask when it will be ready

ciao Joachim

If you pm me your email address I will scan the swing arm section of my manual and parts book, the parts book is not showing size or type of bearing, but with Joachims info you should be on the right road

Yes Joachim, that's the bearings I need. Thanks for the information, I'll get on with trying to find a supplier. Cheers.

A quick google came up with this !!!
