Difference in bearings
I was just curious. GasGas EC 125 model 2005 and 2011 are very similar in the engine. All bearings are the same but when it comes to the crankshaft:
2005 has ME120112006 2011 has ME120112006R As you might notice the 2011 has an "R" in the end. Does that make a difference? Im trying to buy a complete engine bearing kit which only exist for the 2011, so Im hoping to buy that one, but wonder if the "R" will make a difference |

Usually with ball bearings, "RS" means "Rubber Seal" and "2 RS" means "two rubber seal," with one seal on each side. Whether this helps you is suspect, but that's what I can offer.
Does the fiche show a bearing with what looks like a seal? |

I do not have any info since I do not own the R version, but I thank you for your help

IIRC, the '05 used a slip fit bearing where you didn't need to use a case splitter to disassemble the bottom end and the later '11 uses the pressed on bearing which requires the splitter. Correct me if I'm wrong guys!

The only difference I can spot is the 05LVK postfi. However, I cannot find any info about the difference on the SKF web page. I would think that the later one replaces the earlier one without any issues.
