    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

bearings

bearings

I would pass, and go to a bearing house, cause if you need the bearings you need the races too. and hes not offering them, it may be a difference in shield design or even the roller size witch, may put the bearing to high or low in your races
 
the size is listed the same then go for it.
the problem with going to a bearing house is the bearing used is a speacial bearing made for suzuki with a integral seal made to the back side of the bearing wich is very unusual for a tapered roller bearing.

I to checked the part #'s on B.B. the numbers are the same, but like I said if your rollers are shot then the races should be to ,pits, roller indents, rust from steam cleaning,if you buy them and the seals are shot they can be remove and replaced with ones from skf
 
Alright, I bidded on those bearings. The price fromt the dealers was 30 bucks cdn. each. I was willing to pay that. then it went up to 65 dollars EACH!!! no way......

If I need new races (dont know what those are :?: ) then I think those would be easy to get from a bearing house.


Thanks
 
Looks like ya got em!

Look inside your swingarm, Matt, where the bearings fit. The (hopefully) shiny, cone shaped, part is the bearing race. Lube those bearings with grease before you button it up.

And when is part 2 comin' up? Last we heard you were at Devil's Lake State Park. :wink:
 
yup. good deal for 17 bucks total!! 1/3 of the price of the dealer , for 2! even though they are used.....dont matter.

thanks, I will check to see if they are still there. The left bearing is still in, so it should have it, but the right one may be a tad rusted.....
