Hello,
I have a kdx220 2002 and I have around 2-3mm of horizontal play on my swingarm, I look into the manual and nothing about the limit before to do a service for the swingarm bearings, Does someone know ?
Regards,
l2f

A little is acceptable but not 2-3mm....check your shock bushes ( top & bottom ) for play as these often get overlooked..

My experience has been that almost any detectable play will make you feel really 'unsure' in the corners ---you just won't feel like you have a 'solid' hookup with the ground. I'd guess that you probably wouldn't notice anything unusual when you aren't turning. Did you just happen to find that play as a routine check or were you looking for what was causing a handling problem?

Dear ,
I discovered it in my routine check, I am not a pro enduro rider, just playing around to distress...
