Ténéré Suspension link failure…

[Scott SouthwellMember]

The DRZ and RMX have nipples on the linkages but not the shock mounts. Both my DRZ and RMX had dry lower shock mounts when checked.

My Husky 610 also has grease nipples. Seems I like a bit of nipple.

Bugger! As you said, at least you found it when you did and not midway across the Simpson or somewhere similar. I have an older (95) model but will check it anyway.

I pulled yours apart, cleaned and regreased it yesterday Jeffro. It is a totally different link and it is steel not aluminium. The pins and sleeves are a little worn but all clean and re-greased.

Cheers,
