I was going through the rear of my bike and was getting ready to paint the rear 1/2, thought about relpacing the rear arm bearings, is this an easy job? Nothing wrong with them, but thought since I was there I'd pull the arm off, clean and paint it while the caliper and lines were off.

If you're going to pulling the swingarm off, it wouldn't hurt to run a couple clean rags through the bearings and pack some grease back into them.Comment

ya a clean up and fresh grease is a good idea. You wont likely get the bearings out without destroying them though.Comment

My thoughts as well, just a good cleaning and repack, any good axle/wheel bearing grease will be sufficient? ThanksComment
