Video: 1994-2001 Yamaha YZ125 – Shock Linkage Service

This is how to service the shock linkage on your 1994 – 2001 Yamaha YZ125.

This service covers the relay arm and connecting rod. I have a separate video for the swingarm that I will post soon!

This service is shown on a 1996 through 2001 model year, which has a one-piece connecting rod design. The 1994 through 1995 model year has a two-piece design. Although they are slightly different, this service applies to all model years.

For this service, you’ll need a set of new bearings and seals. Which you can buy here → https://amzn.to/43GRvBE
