I still got the stock a arms on my 06 and cant really afford to get new ones anytime soon. One of the ball joints has a lot of play in it and I read on another forum that you can't replace the ball joints on stock a arms. So what am I soposed to do? Any help?

i had the a-arm bushings go out on mine so i took it in for some dealer work...they ended up having to get a new a-arm. warranty covered it all.

Mine feels like the same thing but I believe it is coming from the upper a-arm bearings, which I can't get the clip out of to replace them either. Check the a-arm first usually this will go out along time before the ball joints. I have packed them full of grease but that only works for a few rides.

One of the upper a-arm bearings on mine has play in it too. I have no clue how to replace it though.
My bike has less than 5 hours on it too.
