swingarm bushings

[headheaded]

just thought i would give all the freewheele riders a heads up on the swingarm bushings on the trikes. pop the little black cap off of the left side of your trike and take a look. do you see it off center and pieces of rubber coming out of it ? if so the bushings are bad and it needs to go to the dealer. i'm seeing alot of trikes with very low miles and this is happening to them. take a look.

Silglide is made for ALL rubber and poly bushings, Dawn dish soa works good too as a lube. Try some on your window tracks on your car or truck. Remember back when control arm bushings had grease zerks? Just sayin from a life time ofturnin wrenches I know what works for me
