so i just bought an 83 xs400 maxim, and it has the original swing arm bushings have a little play nothing crazy but you can feel it a little. I read that most people put in brass bushings and i found a link for some in a thread.

I also have the 82 xs400 Seca manual which explains how to take the swing arm off.

I was wondering how long this would take and how much trouble wouldit be for someone who has some mechanical experience but no experience with motorcycles.

Will post pictures of the new bike whe i get it (still at the dealers i don't own a helmet yet so ican't drive it off :banghead:) The helmet is in the mail.
 
awesome that seems like a good weekend project. Is there anything i should know? any common problems or is it pretty straight forward? and besides the bushings what else do i need?
