    Rear Suspension Squeak

    Again, I need answers. I have the '83 GS 750 E. It is squeaking whenever the rear suspension moves. I sprayed some lubricant on the bushings, but to no avail.
    Question is, can I do anything without removing the bushings? I have no center stand, so hoping the fix is simple...

    Thanks

    About all you can do is pull out all the individual bolts that the suspension works on and grease them and any bushings up. Wouldn't hurt to pull the swingarm and grease the needle bearings on it. Even then they squeak some. I've never gotten rid of mine completely.

      Just looking at this, I ass u me that you need to put it up on a center stand (which I don't have YET)

      I'll get a manual shortly. Looks like several bushings and bolts.

        Seems Fixed

        Just FYI.

        I live in Florida and have had a boat in the past (still have - just not running).

        Anyway, everyone here kept telling me to use CRC brand 656. Said it's the best at keeping rust and corrosion away. I was told that it spreads really good and is an excellent lubricant.

        Well, I was going to Disney for a few days and I sprayed every bushing and suspension bolt I could find.

        Now I'm back and no squeeky squeeky....

        Hope this may help someone.
