Default Blaster Ball Joints

I have disassembled the entire chasis and suspension from what might be a 95 Blaster,. The ball joints on the A frame are in tact with no tears on the boots but the ball joint moves pretty freely and smoothly. I know when I replaced the ball joints on my car they were pretty stiff. Is this normal for the ball joints to move as freely?

they should be stiff, but not soo stiff to where you really have to try hard to move it. they are probably worn out. how old is the bike? if you know.

They seem fine with no popping or up and down movement. I appreciate the feedback
