Part:

Video tutorial

Remove the lower side panels on both sides by unscrewing the various bolts, then detach the brake caliper from the disc. At this point, remove the chain using pliers and a flat screwdriver (as shown in the video) and the rear wheel by unscrewing the central spindle.

Once you reach this point, you can also remove the swingarm by taking out the central fixing spindle, which is held by a 13 mm bolt on one side and a 17 mm bolt on the other. Slide it out from the bike and place it on a workbench.

Here, you can now replace the bearings before starting the reassembly.
