Swingarm bearings done

I keep forgetting to take photos!
I end up doing the job and then realise I didn't take any photoes.

Hopefully I'll get some good shots of the headrace bearings I'm doing this week.
Anyway swing arm bearings weren't too much of a pain. Heated the area well and they tapped in ok.
I tapped them in with a same size socket - it's not ideal or recommended but if done gently with thermal aid it can be ok.
One thing that's become apparent is how badly damaged the swingarm sleeve was.
I'm currently trying to source a replacement and have got in contact with every major UK kawasaki dealer but no one has any in stock and Kawasaki no longer make the part.
I emailed Kawasaki UK direct and they advise they have none left even in their EURO or JP warehouses.

One of the buddys over at Redmonkey report I should be able to use a zx7r with success as it's only about 3mm shorter. Cradley kwak have asked for the dimensions of the previous one to see if they can cross reference it with any other. In the mean time here's a couple pics of my current
one.
