Weekend mess..
Well inbetween watching the BTCC, I gave the Zed a bit if TLC.
Now one thing I found, we all know about so no questions there. Door handle come loose!!!! Just waiting to glue it back on.
The next thing I did was jack the o/s rear wheel up for a bit of clean and oil. Took this plate off.....Does anyone know what it is for?????
And last, thing, I noticed that the bushes in the upper suspension are wearing. It it a DIY job to undo the arm? Sorry for the childish arrows lol.

No.9 looks easy enough to do. You can just change the bushes No. 10 & 11.
<<<LINK>>>
Have no idea what that plate is for. Might just be some sort of protection plate to protect the hose.

I replaced my upper link arms with adjustable ones, came with all bushings, easy swap. Can't recall what the plate relates to.

May have to treat myself to some new bushes though, cant work out from the guide if powerflex does them or not? Any ideas, or just put O/E ones on..........................................
