Squeaky back End !

[catmandoes]

I noticed today that if i depress the back end of my Scramber it's very squeaky. Im a bit worried that there may be something wrong with the shocker though it seems to perfom well enough. In fact the Squeak may not even be coming from the shocker, its hard to tell.

Does anyone else have a squeaky back end ??? (im being seriouse) lol

The bike has still got a long warrenty on it so if there something wrong it wont be a disaster.

More or less from the word go.

I have heard that on some quads, the manufacturers have occasionally not greased the bolts that attach the suspension units to the frame, try a squirt of WD40 on things like the brake pedal pivot and other moving items that are possibly squeaking (if only to eliminate them), are the plastic bodywork and cables all secure, just a few small items that might prevent a wasted journey to the dealers .
Failing that, stop eating so much LOL

Rear end squeaks are annoying, I remember once having a rear end squeak which was cured by a dry shaft and bush, a finger and some grease cured it .

I think we need a thread to record the scores :):)

I'll do some lubing on the joints and see how it goes. The shock seems to work perfectly well so its probably just a pivot squeaking.

Danny, try what I did, on the shock absorber mounting bolts (top and bottom) remove the nuts and washers and pull the bolts out about halfway, dont pull them all the way out, smear some grease on the bolt and in the hole and wriggle the bolt back in to spread the grease around, dont forget to do up the nuts up again, I am glad I did mine as they were dry .
