When I'm sitting on my 250sx and I rock it back and fourth it feels like the bearings are gone or something and when I look down at the shaft and rock it, it looks like it is moving up and down........whats the problem HELP!!!!! or is this just normal but i doubt it

could be shock bushings.. goose neck bearings... swingarm bearings.. etc..

prop it up on a crate and go thru the entire thing...

don't forget to check your rear wheel hubs !!! Pins are a must !

Have someone stand on the pegs and rock left/right and grab the swingarm with one hand the the frame with the other... if they are shot.. you will know !
