30K swingarm bearings
Just curious if anyone has had their swingarm bearings replaced at 30K yet. This interval calls for the triple tree bearings to be lubed and the "rear fork" (swingarm) bearing to be replaced, which I find odd, but that's what the book says. What has the bearing replacement cost if anyone has done it? Thanks in advance.

I couldn't tell what the dealer charges. Alot I'm sure. But, do it yourself if you have basic mechanical skills. It's not that difficult. I believe that you only need to lube them but, since you have it apart I guess you could replace them. Anyway, get a service manual and go to town. Under a hundred bucks for manual and bearings.

I do all my own servicing and have a manual but not sure I feel like tackling this - getting lazy in my old age. If they want something outrageous, I'll do it myself, but if it's reasonable I'll have them do it.
