Thanks for clearing that up dcurzon! I'll leave that be then. As for the bearings, to clean them I just whiped them through thoroughly with a clean cloth I havent degreased them or put too much wd 40 in there (what I used to clean the actual linkage itself) because I thought that could be damaging. I have like I said just thoroughly cleaned with a clean dry cloth and then packed in a load of new grease. Should I have degreased them first?
As for aftermarket and replacement shocks I have heard the R6 shock is an excellent upgrade, people who ride SV 650's and bandits upgrade to shocks from gsx-r's, ninjas and the like because they are far better than the built to budget shocks we have. I actually find the fazer handles well though even on the standard shock as long as you turn up the pre-load a little. I have heard hagon aren't great and that Nitron are worth the small amount of extra money. I doubt ill start messing about with that until next year anyway, cheers once again for the help with my original question.
