My dealer told me everything related to the swingarm would be replaced with new parts including all of the bearings.
The big question is why they are using the same damned bearing ?
Another recall???

Because Polaris wants more money out of us..... I promise they don't give you ANY break on overnight shipping- they pack it in the biggest damn box they can find, too. Besides- your new bearings will be fine, until you have a trip planned, or it is the very middle of prime riding season.
-
Let me guess ... they didn't send a new needle bearing inner race/bushing with the recall swing-arms .......
My thought exactly...
My bet is the same, why would you replace a half bearing? It would make sense to include the inner race with a new needle bearing. It is still the same bearings that we had before the recall, nothing new on the bearing front.
-
The service manager confirmed it was the needle bearing inner race/bushing. He also had this to say. “Polaris sent the bushing kit for the ones I have received but pushed back the backorder date for the ones I don't have."

Since hes at work, i guess I'm going to have to go research to find the original bearings thread.....
this is what it looks like- in pieces
-
This is so crazy not fixing the design at this opportunity for Polaris. The warranty is just now starting to end for us first ss receivers and If I have to spend my money to fix these bearings I want to do it right and not have to do it again. Are any of our vendors going to have an aftermarket fix for us ????????
Did Bullet give up on the stock replacement swingarm?????

Is there anyone kind enough to list all of the recalls that are active at this point? Sorry my my lack of knowledge, on my way to the dealership shortly to discuss a purchase on a 2016 or 2017 model and want to make sure I am aware of all recalls and also know what they are.
Thank you for the help.

That's what my local dealer is telling me about the rumored recall. Not sure though if he is just feeding me lines since I'm trying to purchase one???

Helps exponentially! This forums vast knowledge of multiple topics is refreshing. I find myself on the daily/hourly checking for new updates.

The original bearing pos (piece of shit) was never redesigned or fixed. Only replaced when it screw the owner/driver when they wanted to use their machine.
I'll never waste my time for their piss poor mfg. swingarm will not happen unless it breaks!
I'll just keep giving a trigger pull of grease to the zerk every 5000 miles! -
