FE/FC Cross Post: Linkage Hardware???

I'm sorry for the cross post, but I had posted this in the 2t section.

Here it goes:

I'm picking up a 2015 TE250 in a month when it arrives, but I'm currently getting my ducks in a row for its arrival. I have always been a fan of ensuring that the bearings are well lubed prior to the season starting and plan on doing just that over the winter. However, I need some help here from those of you who already have this bike in the garage.

1. Are the bearings still coming pretty dry from the factory? It seem that it depends on which day they were assembled.
2. Does the 2014/2015 Husky have that darn cone nut with a flat side to secure the dog bone to the frame?
3. Can someone post some good picture of this area if in fact they are using the nut from hell as described on KTMtalk.
4. Those of you who have remove the linkage and swingarm for a touch up what did you find with the hardware and the condition of the bearings? Did the cone nut give you fits? Stories welcomed.

Thanks again for your help guys!! I'm already happy to be in.....well, close to in the club. I'm very excited and hauling my buddy's TE125 home for him yesterday didn't help with the wait. Oh well, I need the rest as I found that mashing your wrist into a tree only results in plates and 11 screws. On the mend.....

You might have some luck going to the Husky website and downloading the parts diagram for the bike and review the linkage assembly.

The TEs have the cone nut. This link looks like that for the 125. We'll see. On the 2t thread a member said heat only solved his problem. Also RED Loctite was mentioned as oem. The bikes that had tons of issues looked to have green (2011-2013 KTM).
Thanks for the post.

That was for the 15 TE250

you can search it again with this blank slate to verify

#19 is the bugger. Strange thing is it's showing that the bolt goes in from the shifter side. Hmmm. This pic is what I've seen on the bikes. I guess I'll wait till it gets here. Either way I hope they did lighten up on the loctite.

Check out Jeff Slaven's Youtube channel. He shows how to remove the rear shock, including that strange nut. Heat on the thread locker is needed.
