Just go to one of the thousands of online honda part dealers and use the breakdown diagrams.

Yeah that should help.

 

[jr dragster T]

Ok my swing arm and rear link have quite a bit of slop. It's more in the link though. I've searched, searched and searched and found nothing online. Are they just like nylon bushings or like a real bearing?

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

Check the parts diagrams.

 

[jr dragster T]

What part's diagram?

**** why did Honda have to use metric bolts everywhere. Of course I have like every imperiel bolt ever needed for this bike in a big tub of random bolts but very little metric, And I need a metric bolt for the rear link.

why did Honda have to use metric bolts everywhere.

Because it's a Japanese design. Could be worse.
Some European cars use Whitworth tools.
Quote from a UK website:

[SIZE=+1]Whitworth is an old British standard for screw threads and sizes. You need the Whitworth size tools to work on your old Austin, Rolls-Royce, Jaguar, MG, BSA, or other old British made automobile or motorcycle. [/SIZE]

 

[jr dragster T]

Yeah that's true Russ. Looks like i'm off to Home Depot for that bolt.

 

[Russ2251]

Consider stainless. Expensive...but worth it in the long run.

 

[jr dragster T]

Pshh I dont mind spending a extra 50 cents for stainless Espeiclly because when I get this bike going I'm going to have alot of trust in it. when im at my my cottage I go pretty far from the cottage.

 

[jr dragster T]

Ok I found the hub like part I'm trying to remove. The part is #4 in this exlploded view. I'm thinking it thread's off.

 

[jr dragster T]

Never mind I got it all apart. Just thread's off like I thought. Had to make a custom tool. Did I ever have fun getting the #22 snap ring off. It's like a 3" snap ring and VERY stiff! the Torque Absorbers #5 are finished so I will be ordering new ones. I also got the other bearing out and its worse. Both bearings where PACKED in mud with the seals ripped off and broken race's and missing ball's.

 

[Russ2251]

and missing ball's.

Jeez...you DO have problems.

 

[jr dragster T]

Lol no shortage of ball's here! I mean like look at them.
