    5033 008 2000 Shaft Bearing (rhs) $101.46
    thats an expensive bearing, place I got mine from: Precision Bearings & Transmission 110 Mays Rd Onehunga, they should be able to do them and seals for cheaper.

    Damn did quite a bit of damage then, what would you look for so it doesn't do it again, leak test?

    Worth trying, as it saved me a few $$$$, I used Auckland bearing, diana drive, glenfeild.
    as long as the bearing are V rated (automotive) youshould be fine when i did my TT600 Yamaha wanted $85 for the balance shaft bearing i ordered it then found out it had been super seeded to a 6305 bearing cost me $9.50 trade only thing you need to check on is if the are sealed bearing on to big a deal to remove seals and clean out.

    Watch your bearing matches if you go to a bearing place. In my experience, the stupidly-expensive KTM bearings are non-standard sizes, that will be either expensive or unobtainable at a bearing place. All those extra letters & numbers on the bearing part numbers can mean important things.

    I spoke to a 2T fellah yestdy about my 200; he suggested that the black-caged ProX big-end bearings aren't the best at high rpms, he normally replaces them with silver-caged bearings, suggested I get the KTM bearing... but it's not listed as a separate part.
    Cheers,

    You can borrow mine, or order one from cycletreads. They are not expensive.

    I replaced every bearing and seal in my sons kx125(including all gearbox and clutch housing seals and bearings) for just under $160 - from SMP bearings in Hamilton

    Ask for Della - what she doesnt know about bearings isnt worth knowing.
    Cheers.

    if it has another gear it run agaist sometimes a copper washer resonable size jamb in between can help to lock it up less likely to cause damage usin copper washer. Altough i have found somtime even if free spins a rattle gun (quick brust can be just enough to shake them loose)

    yep I've taken the correct socket up the the local tyre place before and got them to put their grunty rattle gun on and that has done the trick in the past.

    The other way is? Because you are dealing with a shagged crank you can put a cold chisel or something between the two halves at the crank pin and the case. As it turns it will jam and stop the crank from turning and lock it up. Then you can either get a strong arm onto it or an impact driver. I only suggest the above because your doing a complete recon I wouldn't do it if you are leaving the crank alone.
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!
