To take the axle out its pretty much strait forward. Just take the hub off on the left side(the left side of when your sitting on the bike) then just loosen off those two big nuts on the left side of the axle. When you do that the axle should slide right out.You don't even need to know what your doing, its that easy

Check with dads first. I got my Z bearings for half that including shipping.Originally Posted by 250r'en +TCB
The axle is DEFINATLY bent. I jacked up the machine, removed the wheels and that puppy is bent for sure. I think it just took to many hard landings because both sides are bent the same way. Who knows......
So if I find a place to straghten it..... How much do you guys think it will cost and also will it even be worth it?
Anybody have an axle for an 85 R for sale? A STRAIGHT ONE PERHAPS!?!?!![]()

Get in the phone book and call some machine shops. They're gonna be cheaper than bike shops most of the time. I haven't had to do it in years but when I did it was like 15 bucks for one side. If they can get it reasonably straight for say, 40 bucks or less, it's probably worth it. Any more than that you're better off looking for a used replacement.
Yeah, find yourself a clymer manual, or something like that, it's good reading and you won't be clueless after that on stuff like bearing replacment
