Time to take the swinging arm out and grease the bearings - I did the suspension linkage back in the summer, but the bike has now developed a "creak" everytime you sit on the bike or take it off the sidestand / centrestand.
When I had the calipers done the other week the mechanic commented on it and advised me to take the swinging arm out and grease it ASAP before the bearings wear out, he said that it is a common fault caused by a lack of factory greasing.
Guess it is a straightforward job, just a pain dismantling everything and putting it all back together.
Job for next week.
