Hi. Look around on the diagrams pages. It will show the parts, but you will have a heck of a time finding them, as they are for a 40-year old dirt bike, not a 40-year old car.

If you didn't already know, keep an eye on eBay. They will ask a pretty penny for any NOS NLA part.

It was me that deleted your signature. Please don't plant "your" flag in "our" yard. As a heads up, other forums may do the exact same or worse if you try to promote your group in someone else's. Thanks.

Sorry to ruffle feathers by putting my "flag" here, my feeling is cross promoting groups ( I have a link to this site on my page) only helps us all but I`ll abide by your rules. I guess my search for NOS parts is on or maybe figure out how to make my own bushings, thanks.

Thanks.
The swingarm bearings might be similar to modern bearings with the 2030 designation. The spherical bearings might be similar to the later KDX spherical bearings. You might find them at a bearing store.
Good luck on the search.
