Hi,
I'm not sure if this is in the right section so feel free to move it if its in the wrong one.
My question is can you reuse the needle bearings that go in the swing arm, suspension linkage and the rear caliper mounting bracket? As you need 8 bearings to replace them all this is pretty expensive. Please let me know if you can get away with reusing these bearings
Thanks
Adam

Re: Re-using needle bearings
as long as they are in decent order, you can just repack them with molybdenum disulphide grease and put them back in.
