    Help me here

    Hi guys
    I have a P150 UG4.5
    Done 10k kms
    The swingarm is constantly making a lot of noise. The mechanic told me to go for swingarm bush change. Can anyone tell me if he is right ?
    My bike is just 10k kms old.
    And what is the specific torque upto which the swingarm bolts need to be tightened. Is is really necessary to follow that torque index ?
    PS using Zapper Vyde on rear which has been centered.

          The price may be around 50Rupees for 4 bushes.But don't know the actual price.
          And don't know about tightening the torque because it should be done very carefully by calculating.
          And try to lubricate the swing arm after changing the bushes.

            Got the job done 140 for each pair. Tightened to the right torque using a torque wrench and properly lubricated.
            Thanks
            PS mods can you clean up this thread ?
