Matt,

Great post and good luck with the bike.

Does the swingarm still use the needle bearings with the tiny built in seals? If so they are worthless. On my bros '02 250 we found that GasGas bearings, sleeves and seals (or orings) go right in and solve the problem.

Yeah, there is something about Itailan bikes being overtorqued. Make sure you loosen and re-torque the triple clamps, they were crazy tight.

I'm going to spend some time on my nephews GG125 this year. I know what that bike can do. My only complaint about the Husky is the height, as I'm only 5'9".
