The bearings that let the swingarm pivot freely so the rear suspension works properly.
TOURMAX offers this swingarm bearing kit for HONDA XL 250 S, XL 500 S, XR 250 1978-1981. The swingarm pivots on needle bearings protected by seals. Water and mud make them seize: the suspension gets stiff and play appears.
What is this bearing made of?
Races and balls in hardened chrome steel, 100Cr6 type, very hard and fatigue-resistant, protected by rubber seals.
- Double seal (2RS): a seal on each side, very well sealed against water and mud, essential off-road.
- Limit: slightly more drag than a metal-shielded bearing (ZZ), which spins more freely but seals far less well.
- Fitting: press or drift it in on the outer race, never hammer on the seal; keep the pressure washer away from the hubs.
Why choose TOURMAX?
Tourmax has its parts made in Japan by suppliers to the major Japanese manufacturers, at OEM quality level according to the brand.
When should you replace this part?
Side play when you rock the swingarm with the rear wheel removed, or a notchy movement: the bearings need changing.
