Overhauling the rear swing arm axle

Using a comparator, check the swing arm axle for distortion.
Position the axle on two identical contacts. Rotating the axle and moving it
horizontally and take the distortion reading with the instrument.
Distortion limit: 0,30 mm/ 0.012 in.

Overhauling the rocking lever and the rear suspension tie rod

With the rocking lever (1) and the tie rod (2) still mounted on the rear swing arm
and on the frame respectively, manually check their radial and axial play, pulling
these parts in any direction. The rocking lever and tie rod have been designed with
a certain amount of axial play in order to allow the shock absorber to always find
the ideal operating position. If however there is any axial play, it will be necessary
to remove the component from the the swing arm or frame and carry out a check
on the internal spacer (A) and (E), bushings (C), (D) and bearings (B).
Apply some grease inside the bearings before assembly.
