Feel the Smooth - New Performance of Your YAMAHA YZ125/YZ250 with Factory Links Swing Arm & Bearing Kits

Keeping your rear suspension dialed in is crucial to unlocking peak stability, performance, and reliability on every ride! While the rear shock itself may need a pro’s touch servicing it.
You can take charge of a key DIY step that makes all the difference: keeping those swing arm bearings, linkage bearings, and lower shock bearing in prime condition. All it takes is disassembling the linkage and swing arm, then giving the bearings a fresh layer of Maxima Racing Oil’s Multi-Purpose Waterproof Grease. For just $13, applied three times a year, you’re not just maintaining your bike—you’re ensuring buttery-smooth performance that lasts. Don’t wait; a small investment now saves your suspension from costly repairs down at the track!
If this maintenance isn’t done regularly, your bearings can wear out badly, leading to costly replacements. Below is a parts list you’ll need to get your suspension back in top shape. While we’ve focused on the Yamaha YZ125, the same parts are essential for nearly all bike brands and models.
