I'm going to do the swingarm/unilink service again and was thinking I should go ahead and replace the swing arm bearings this time. (I have handling issues, and a tiny bit of vertical play there). I was wondering if I should use tapered bearings and if so where to get them. I've done a few searches. I'm not turning up much on swing arm bearings for this bike--not anyway tapered bearing. I think I'mm finding the original Kawasaki "needle" bearings.
I know next to nothing about bearings, so I don't know if there are standard sizes that are interchangeable or if they are very bike specific.
Can any of you point me in the right direction?
I'm going to be replacing bit by bit all of the bearings on the bike--wheels, steering head, and swing arm but the swing arm bearings are the ones I'm not finding.
Thank you.
