Swingarm bearing kit

Post by xstian » 14 Nov 2012, 06:46

I've read through the FAQ section and I see all the bearings are listed in there.

I thought I read on here XR400 bearing kit are the same. I had a search but couldn't find it on here. Can any one confirm this?

If not I see that some of the seals and bushes listed in the FAQ section have part No. instead of sizes. I take it these have to be brought from Honda.

Cheers Christian

All balls XR400 kit fits fine, but you will probably have to grind a tiny bit off of the bushes to fit between the engine and frame. Best to loosen the engine mounts when installing so that you have a bit of movement, one of my kits fitted perfectly, next kit needed the bushes grinding a little.

Nice thing is that the bearings are bigger.

The information is in the what fits what. I've just spend £90 on a load of bits and having compared prices, if you can get seals and bearings from simmply bearings, most (but not all) are cheaper than Leisure Trail or David Silver spares. What most of you may fnd strange is LT are cheaper than DSS on 95% of the parts.
