alright,

so my axle moves like crazy,

i think it might be my bearings are shot.


pictures looks like

The middle piece of my axle moves alot and my show rear wheel Axle moves side to side

any idea what the piece is called? (the middle piece of the Axle)

 

Are the nuts on the outside of the sprocket and disc tight? If they are Id think your bearings are shot.

 

i have no idea, i will have to take a picture of it or somthing. but i can see alot of rubber expsosed beside it and a metal ring.. only on the left side of the axle so it prob is my bearings.
not sure why there is rubber circle pieces and what not though

 

The rubber pieces are more than likely the seal..

 

are they easy to replace? can i replace them myself easy enough? thanks

 

First, make sure the axle nut is tight. If the axle stil has a lot of play, then the bearings are almost certainly shot. They are not hard to replace, but may require some real encouragement to drive them out. Typically you will have a set of bearings on either side of the bearing carrier, and a rubber dust seal(that rubber you see) outside each bearing race.

 

Pretty straight forward...Start from the out side and work your way in.. remove wheels/tires/hub, axle spacer if it has one..Remove the double locked nuts from each side. remove sprocket and disc hubs and the axle should slide out from 1 side.. Bearing may need to be pressed/hammered out of the swing arm..

 

thanks for the info!

last question, anyone know the bearing sizes for this Daymak? its a 200cc / year 2008 model?

i cant find any info on them

 

That is the problem with the Chinese stuff. You may have to dig around to get that info. You may get lucky and still be able to get some measurements once they are out.

 

Not off hand...Id pull the bearings out and match them up at a bearing supply house..Should have a number on them or they can be measured.
