    So lately my hyosung's rear suspension has been awfully squeaky, its a quiet day at work and we've got a can of canola oil cooking spray that we use to lubricate our tomato slicer

    Is canola oil sprayed on your shocks a bad idea? Haha

    On a serious note ..... make sure it doesnt fling off onto your rear tyre

    Also the squeaking would more than likely be coming from the roller bearings inside the swingarm and wishbone etc

    If it is indeed your linkage bearings, you can save yourself a lot of money by greasing them. It's super easy to do and keeping them greased means you will practically never have to replace them. Without proper greasing the rollers will eventually snap and the squeak will become a crunch! Not fun!

    Toowong, I rolled it to a Woolworths parking lot and went in and asked if I could pay to keep it parked there until I was able to pick it up, they were kind enough to give me a parking permit
