XT500 swing arm parts diagram from Haynes manual

The photography on these pages is not perfect. Whilst I am a trained photographer, I chose to use my time on the bike and not setting up lights, backgrounds etc. I just used my iPhone. Unfortunately, most daylight hours are taken up with the kids, especially because of Covid-19 lockdown but also because of the crazy 3 month summer holidays in Italy. I am limited to the hours of darkness AND the garage is indeed in a cave, underground garages below our apartment building with poor lighting for photography. So you’ll have to remove your sunglasses to look at the photos 😎 😂
This is also the reason I do not use compressors, sand blasters or welding equipment. No noisy tools between 13:00 and 15:00, after 19:00 or on Sundays.
