Hi everyone, when changing the swingarm bushes, should I also change the rod too .. the rod between the bushes ?
If so, what will be all the parts required ? their cost ?
And anything else that I should oversee during the procedure so that any mistakes/errors can be avoided. Thanks.

Anyone ???

That swingarm rod is actually a long bolt acting as pivot . Normally there should be no need to change it unless it is very rusted , pitted ( rough surface from rusting ) , bend or broken . After taking the swinarm out clean everything thoroughly with solvent like kerosene / brush and wipe with clean cloth . Replace the worn rubber bushing and other worn parts with new parts and also replace the plastic part that is on one side of the swingarm protecting it from the chain . Check that the swingarm itself is not twisted or bend or out-of-line in any way . Lubricate the bushings & moving joints generously with good quality grease and refit . After refitting wipe off and clean the area so that no excess grease remains visible , this will discourage dirt/sand from accumulating there . That's it .

Finally got the CD100 serviced. Had to change quite a few parts. Total amount was ~8800.

Rides like new now. Thanks [MENTION=41586]Divya Sharan[/MENTION] and [MENTION=47434]ramprasadkamineni[/MENTION] for suggesting Royal Motors.

Would you mind posting a list of what things you got changed?

1. Lockset
2. Clutch assembly
3. Coneset
4. Fork oil and seals
5. Camchain
6. Gaskets
7. Levers
8. Rear drum
9. Spokes
10. Rear shocks
11. Brake shoes

These are the major ones, apart from them I had to get the swingarm overhauled and other minor things done.

5. Camchain

I'm curious, what about the timing chain tensioner? Does the motor even have one? Cause I do not recall seeing one on the Splendor/CD/HF motors and for some reason it has never struck me before to ask.

Re: Hero Moto Splendor/Joy/CD-Dawn/Passion

Who said it doesn't have a timing chain tensioner. Intact it has one of the most reliable timing chain tensioner. Every part be it tension spring, or pushrod or the arm.
Every part is Individual. That makes it so reliable that it doesn't needs attention until it requires timing chain change. So people don't usually talking about tensioner in these bikes.

Found it!

I've never had a motorcycle with this setup, hence was curious about it.

Simple and reliable setup

Re: Hero Moto Splendor/Joy/CD-Dawn/Passion

One thing to note is that the bike is still running on the first chain and sprockets (at least according to my father, who still has the service bills with him).

Doesn't make any weird noises and still is smooth.

My dad's CD100 is still on third chain, which he claims was made by Diamond or Rollon. He doesn't seem to remember the brand and now even after 24 years and 200K+ chains are still not an issue on old bikes. They last really long.

Wow! Goes to show how spare quality has deteriorated over the years.

My CT100B's chain is 25k km's old and it has been dead post the golden quadrilateral ride which estimates life of roughly 20k km's.

For those wondering, it's made by Rollon.

That's true, the overall quality has gone down.

My last set of clutch plates lasted only 15k kms, while the stock ones lasted 80k+ kms (would've lasted longer, but I learnt to ride on it plus my friend and I regularly overloaded it with 200+kgs).
