    Your shock bearings and linkage bearings require regular maintenance if you want them to last a long time and perform properly. Ideally these parts should be disassembled, inspected, and re-greased every 6 months or so for regular riders. Over time these bearings will eventually wear out and need to be replaced so that's what we're going to show you how to do in this video. When looking for a replacement bearing kit for your motorcycle or atv shock, keep in mind some of them will vary with contents. It's important to know what you plan on replacing and also what each kit includes so you can get all the parts needed the first time. In this video we demonstrate how to replace both the upper and the lower shock bearing on a motorcycle shock. We also show you a few different shock bearing designs and how to properly remove the old bearing and install the new one without causing any damage.

    Thanks. The vice method is what we used for car's u-joints. Don't do enough bike suspension (at age 70) to justify the Motion Pro kit. Does sound like a great kit for people who do more. Great video

    Thank you for the video, replaced the top bearing today using a C-clamp. Your directions made it pretty simple.

    Congratulations!
    Because you exchanged the upper bearing? Originally ball and you installed needle. Att.

    Great video, but I discovered my 1996 XR250R has the spherical bearings BUT NO SHOULDER OR CIRCLIPS. You just have to press it out like any other bearing, then center the new bearing by eye. Bit of a pain, as I kept overshooting the center.....would be nice to have that locating shoulder.

    Me gustan mucho tus vídeos y tu manera de expresarlos paso por paso...me parecen sensacional porque los veo para aprender porque la mecánica me gusta vastate. La pena es que no entiendo nada de nada tu idioma...me gustaría poder escucharlos en español....a pesar de todo ...un saludo por tus vídeos.

    Do the lips on the seals face outwards or inwards?

    • @jaywalk6628
      @jaywalk6628 Před 2 lety

      The bottom seals face inwards (grooved side of seal towards the inside)
      On the top the tapered (rounded side) faces inwards.

    How long does these kinds of bearings usually last with proper maintenance?

    • @mxkied72
      @mxkied72 Před 9 lety

      I replace mine every couple years or so if they need it or not.

    • @rmatvmc

      mxkied72 Thanks for your input. That's usually a good schedule to be on. Mack Mkay These parts should be inspected regularly and replaced when necessary. With some riders they'll get replaced every race season and with others they might last the entire time the person owns the bike. It just depends on how much the machine is ridden and in what conditions. If you replaced them every couple of years and kept up on regular maintenance you'd stay running smooth!

      @@rmatvmc I had a Burgman 650 for 8 years and never once replaced the shock bearings. The seals went on them first so I had to replace each side once. I do 35 miles a day in all seasons so they got plenty of use.

    Great videos! (One minor nit--"disembled" is not a word; it is "disassembled.")

      Dissemble is a word, but yeah the voice-over probably meant disassemble.
