  • Cheers nick, I can't seem to get it to download properly, looks good. I just really need to know about the Main Pivot on the Kikapu, as I wanted to strip it and clean it.

    There are 2 hex bolts either side, securing the main pivot by the BB, drive side one came out, and looks like it threads into the larger one on the non-drive side. However, once the drive side bolt is removed, the other one just spins around, and I need to know how to remove it, in effect to seperate the swingarm from the front triangle.. hmmmmmmm

    Any ideas?

    sorry wrong thing. i thought you wanted to know how it worked.

    screw the one that came out back in and then back it out a bit and tap.
    bit more and tap. remove, insert punch/drift of the correct size and knock it out.
