After 1600 miles my NCX is showing signs of wear and needs some maintenece.
Two of the brass bushes on the pivot action are badly worn and need replacement however probably better to replace all eight if I can source spares.

One of the worn bushes just removed is in a very poor state.DSCF0446.JPG DSCF0447.JPG

Mine are the same and they get oiled monthly.
I am going to visit my local lawnmower man as I think he may have something similar around.

I have them on 2 of my bikes the other NCX is fine and has done a lot more mileage. I am getting 2 sets of bushes made for free though I am inadvertedly paying for them as a tax payer. They are dry bushes and should not need oiling, I am surprised that spare bushes aren't sold by some of the sellers.
I only checked the NCX because I noticed some play with saddle and thought it had come loose on the rails.
