So, for a little while now i've been getting a feeling of the bike feeling a tiny bit unstable when riding.
It reminds me of when my rear shock leaked before and i was literally riding on the spring around corners which became quite eventful, but not quite as bad as that this time.
I have a refurbed OEM shock, which has done approximately 9000 miles.
I've checked for any leaks and i can't see any oil anywhere this time so i think it's okay where that's concerned.
I was wondering though, if the swing arm bearings are shot, or seized, what would i be feeling on the bike when riding? Could seized swing arm bearings make the rear shock stick in a fixed position?
At the moment i do think that i'm feeling too many bumps in the road, and there's that odd slightly wobbly feeling again.
My rear tyre looks okay, with plenty of tread left in the middle, so it's not squared off at all.
When i put my weight on and off the seat the suspension doesn't really feel like it's doing too much to me, almost like it's too hard.
Can somebody enlighten me on what and how to check to determine what's at actually at fault please?
I can't do anything until tomorrow so any suggestions or help welcomed in the mean time.
