Swingarm roller bearing sizes anyone?

[hillbilly]

Anyone know size of swingarm needle roller bearings. 06 EC300.
Want to order while away with work so I have them ready to fit when I get home.
Got quality industrial supplier local who I will buy from rather than ripped off buying OE.
Read somewhere to not use caged type, increases loading on individual rollers, makes sense.
cheers

It's not just the rollers that wear out.The bushes they run on will be shagged.Bearing supply shops can't supply them.I purchased the all balls kit that supplied the bushes for the 06 and the smaller earlier models +rollers,outer race.Cheap as.

+1 on the allballs that's what I fitted.

I took the new bearings in the kit to a local bearing and seal company, they matched them up with quality Japanese bearings and new seals for about 12 GBP a BIG saving over GG original parts.

You should be able to contact allballs and order just the bushes if you give them the sizes and quanitities. You can then source the bearings at the local store. True story. Easier just to buy the complete all ballz kit though.

good point, hadn't though about the bushes. E-bay did the trick. Another job for me when I get home.

I used parts from a 1997 kx250 linkage rebuild kit for my 2001 xc250 swingarm pivot bearing rebuild. Pivotworks made it. $15 for kit off ebay.
