FXR balance shaft bearing?

[richban]

I have the left side sorted. Anyone know where I might get the other one quick? 20x47x9 I suspect it will be from Mr Suzuki.

Yep. found that size listed as 68204. The bearing has 6204 on it. But is narrow.

I have had 6204 brgs slimmed down before by a magnetic table surface grinder and saved myself heaps of $$$$$$.

These precision surface grinders can be found in tool rooms and precision engineering shops.

your right rich its a 620-9 9= 9mm and the bearings you can buy are 10mm just buy on of the cheaper ones from skf and get Cemac to grind it like I did in mine.

Funny after all the drama it tuners out that the left side case has been machined to take a cheap off the shelf 6204. So it can be done but not much meat left at all. Strange coz the bottom end was of a commuter that had run out of oil. Maybe a factory cock up and fix. Anyway with the shaft back in she is much smoother. Will be interesting to see how much hp it has lost, if any.

Negligible, I wouldn't say more than 7 or 8%

7 to 8% nooooooooooooooowha. Unacceptable. Best start tuning the thing proper then.

[crazy man]

on a 600 4 they gained 3 hp by removing them but no idea on 150 maybe 1 hp who knows

It will be interesting to see should know next week.

[Henk]

Just bore it an extra 20cc to 200 to make up for the power loss.

[Pumba]

But isint already a 250cc:sweatdrop

If only. But if it was a 250 it would be making over 40hp with the same level of tuning. Now that would be fun.

Well sort of, valve size might limit it quite a bit.

Glad I got a bite from my fictitious figure.
