??? Oil leak from swing arm bushes???
Posted: Wed Nov 21, 2007 5:47 pm
SO.... I've finally got this '82 Pantah running from parts that were dissassembled 10 years ago. I've sorted out varies problems and have been test riding the thing.
After some time running (static and in motion) it seems to develop a fine spray of oil onto the back wheel/swing arm.
Could this be the (what looks like brass) bushes that swing arm pivots off the engine, leaking oil?? Do these bushes then somehow connect with the crank case??
My question is: If this in fact this is the case can I just remove the back wheel/swing arm assemly to replace these bushes or do I need to pull the whole engine out (AHHHH....!!!!)
I am a ham-fisted half wit....need help
