i have tried hitting it through but i supose i could find the energy to keep whacking it and yes i am replacing the bearings, i am striping it down as i will hopefully be having the frame and swing arm powder coated, i am putting all the build pics on my myspace so hopefully wont screw up and look a fool to every1 as this is my first streetfighter attempt and i plan to get it right lol any 1 know of any jack up kits on the market or alternatively any longer rear shocks that would fit

Hi folks, newbie on here, had 2 cb1's over the past ten years, and yes they are fun(stating the obvious i know). as for the rear swingarm spindle, have same problem on mine, and by looks of it the bearing collar has rusted on to the spindle itself, dont know if this will be whats wrong.

You need to set up a picture hosting account (I use photobucket). You upload the pics there and they provide you with a link to paste here so your pics show up.

swing arm is now off with the help of a angle grinder, just need to remove a roller bearing casing from inside but have been eyeing up a vfr 400 swingarm, any ideas how hard this would be to fit
will need a new bolt to go through the swinarm as i had to cut mine so if anyone knows where i can get one please let me know thanks
