Got the swing arm to soak in diesel for a while. The plan is to clean it up and have it anodized black wiht some other stuff.
Anyone knows how to get the bearings out from a Yamaha R1 swingarm ?

I used the pivot bolt to pound the thinner one out then it was a lot easier to get access to pound out the thicker one. Yours might have the same thickness on both ends but either way the process is the same.

Small taps around the outer ring and it will come out ?

Used the rear wheel axle to tap out the larger bearing when the small one was out.
Thanx again Holly,

Yeah...it came out good. Could have gone with one long axel to the gear shifter axle.
But the middle part made it look more mechanical as you say. Will try to pack loads of small mechanical solutions in there
Here´s one more:
Need a bracket for rear brake cylinder

Did´net even think off that...when you mention it I usually have to move the kick stand forward a bit :whistle:
One step forward two steps back..
Made the decision to reblaster some parts and send them off to black anodizing.
Hopefully this will give me that "factory built" look.
