Hi There

I am after a favor from a fellow kawasaki member.

I need to remove my swingarm from my zx9r and would like to borrow the special tool from a anyone located in the brisbane area.

Please could anyone help me with this,a few beers and a very big thank would be your reward for helping me out.

Thank you to anyone that can help me.

Cheers Nick

what is the special tool? mine is due to come out next week. I have found that most of the time "special tool" is a hammer and a punch :D

If i remember it's a kind of hex headed socket that is keyed with tongues and grooves so you cant use any plain socket to loosen it. pictures speak 1k words, so take a look and you'll see what he means.
