So I've recently dismantled and checked my bushes and bearings because of some freeplay in the swingarm. I think I've found the source of my problems. this bush seems to be worn out and cracked and i'm having a hard time finding the dimensions for the bush. fowlers parts is saying £24 for one bush!!!which is crazy; if anyone knows the dimensions it would be very very helpful! -

Go to Wemoto, they do a complete kit (aftermarket) with bearings and bushes for a reasonable cost

To be honest, that price sounds about right for what it is. I'm surprised you can even get bushes for it.
If it were me, I'd measure it all up and get a generic polyurethene bush for it and a new collar.

Poly bushes last a life time and give many benefits.
