I have been riding my DS on a local mx track lattely and even though it is not very extreem at all it is taking its total. I had the front end jacked up tonight and noticed that the top front A arm mount wobbled real bad. I then started checking the rest of the pivot points and the top shock mount has a lot of play in it as well. Is this normal? Is there an aftermarket urathane(sp) kit available? It is all in the plastic bushings not the spacer or bolt. The machine is only a few months old and I have kept it greased. Any help would be greatly appreaciated.

Someone out there has to know if there is a urathane bushing kit available!!! Knutz??? Fourlix??? anyone.. I am in bad need for something and would rather not put stock ones back in if they are not going to last any longer than this.


On a side note my dealer got a baja in today. It is SWWWEEEET. New upper and lower A arms, cant tell much diference in the seet, nice tack.

Diamond G Racing now has full sets of nylon with teflon upper and lower a-arm bushings for the DS650.They are being tested right now in the Baja 1000.We have had much better luck with these bushings, the urethane tends to crack and give a harsh ride. A full set for upper and lower a-arms retail for $130.00
