I don't think that spindles are that expensive, but that's no excuse for that! Laughing

I'm just glad that I didn't ask for Ste's help when I changed the rear caliper bracket on the Blade! Razz

Tried that. Lots and lots of times.

The problem was the rectangular bits which slot into the swingarm, one of them was the wron way round, horizontal not vertical. So when I set the wheel alignment using that, it was wrong Neutral

Then I rode home on it... well nearly, it started eating the bearings going down the M4, and I then rode back at about 20mph through Reading to G's.

The spacer on the disk side on the wheel was stuck to the axle some how. So by cutting it off there, we could remove the axle from the bike and fix it Smile

The axle and spacer were fucked anyway, so it didn't break anything which would have been useful.

While it was all apart like that you should have got the frame fixed.

Why bother to repair a dent while the engines out and everything when you can buy more blue bits with that hard earned money. And I still can't see why you'd have to saw the axle in half to get it out Confused

Eh? Confused

I dont get what you're saying Confused

And the axle wasnt going to budge. Spent quite a while trying to persuade it with a hammer and it wasnt having any of it.

Sod most tools, use G's method of;

Size 1 Hammer (Small)
Size 2 Hammer (Med to Large)
Size 2 Hammer (FWACK OFF!!!)

And a flat headed screw driver.
