I stripped and re-greased the swing arm and suspension linkage last year, and torqued everything as per guidance.  Didn't take off the spring unit however.

Does the cat internals disintegrating give any other symptoms e.g. poor running, or do you have to strip the exhaust down and hope it doesn't sound like a box of nails when shaken?
