What to do about the 82GPz750's swing arm sleeve

[SVSooke]

I forgot to updateThe sleeve thing I was thinking about does't fit at all,have some off my 83 GS750's the right ID but walls are 1mm thickerPartzilla may be good but to see any prices I got to create an account,hate that!Been wondering if this might be a good alternative http://srx.ca.ebayrtm.com/clk?RtmClk...183&pi=2050601 ?

The stock swingarm uses bearings, not bushings. I'd get the OEM parts or equivalent.

92046-1115 BEARING-NEEDLE,HK2216
$9.77 USD

A search on HK 2216 shows the dimensions are 22mm Bore, 28mm OD, 16mm Width

You should be able to find a local substitute. Amazon has them for $7 each. http://www.amazon.com/HK2216-Bearing.../dp/B002IFV964

Yeah I was planning to go to the local bearing place to see if they had some.

Most of the metric bike bearings will be NTN or Koyo. You should be able to find a Timken or SKF equivilant. I've been able to identify metric needle bearing by the universal p/n which should be on the edge of the bearing, bring that number to Napa Auto and they can usually cross it over. Be warned those needle bearings can get REAL expensive but sometimes you have no choice. Google "SKF cross reference chart". I had to try and find obsolete 45mm spherical axle bearings for my older CRG shifter kart, after a lot of reverse engineering and p/n cross referencing I was able to find them from SKF. Good luck !

The 2216 bearings are pretty easy to find,here are 4 off eBay
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/182041069317?...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT or 4 for less than 2 would cost http://www.ebay.ca/itm/182041069839?...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT these http://www.ebay.ca/itm/290962677866?...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT or http://www.ebay.ca/itm/301312619723?...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT .Yeah they're made in China but how much you want to bet any name brands will be to?

So I was thinking about why the 84 KZ750 Canadian didn't show on the search for SW sleeves so I looked on the fiche.That model uses 2 small sleeves the width of the bearings and a spacer "collar".It's the same parts used on the KZ1000 and 1100's.Thinking this kit http://www.ebay.ca/itm/KR-Swing-Arm-...BWKi2J&vxp=mtr with my sleeve cut to match may solve this problem
Tried to get a fiche to show but it wouldn't work
