all sorted fresh WOF, speicial thanks to your kind offers of help - you guys rock.Thanks to Tri-boy's technical advice(twas my first bearing replacement).
standard bearing for the top of the stem is 47mm o/d, only suzuki would think of being difficult and making a 48mm one just so you can only buy it from them.
ended up finding the top bearing in another bike kit so the shop split the kits and charged me for one, The shop in question was Demitry parts and accessories Morrinsville, he sorced the parts within 20mins and had them couriered 5 hours later- cost $81. suzuki took 6 days to find the exact parts and costing over $100 . So a BIG thumbs up to Demitry's i will definately be buying from them again.
