Rear shock movement at the bottom - MOT fail

[papercutout]

I've just pulled it apart again, and there's slop in the rubber bush that is around the metal sleeve. It's not disintegrating though, as you'd see in an old bush, no cracks etc.

I'd expect a normal bush to 'flex' not clonk up and down...


Fazerider - the movement is only in the one place, the rest of the pivot arm is fine. Literally only where the bolt goes through the shock and arm.
