Title: Flyin Monkey
Post by: Proflexman on September 05, 2003, 06:06:17 am

 :) Hello all.
A new subject for me, i have just bought one of these as my winter project to restore and when i stripped down the swinging arm found what i assume to be needle roller bearings in the frame.
Are these what i think they are and how do you remove them and can you buy new ones.
What is the model number for this frame.
Most of the bikes have a name like beast what is this one classed as.
Thanks everyone for your help.

I guessing, but it sound like a 99 Evo based frame:

your bike is know n asa flying monkey and the frame style is as jimbo says the evo style frame...least thats what we call em.I am sure the swingarm bearings are replaceable but i bet they dont tneed it unless they have started to corrode.
