McMaster needle bearing
Does anybody remember what bearing was available in the Mc Master catalog. I think it was for the rear linkage or maybe the swingarm. I believe Canyoncarver put one in his bike back in the day. It was described as a " caged needle bearing Part number #5905K76" I saved the information, but now i can't remember where to install it. Any help would be appreciated.

It won't fit without machining the seals.
You knew that, right?
'Back in the day'??!! Whatz THAT s'posed to mean!!

..sounds so old!.
I didn't say incorrect!!
There are pics and maybe more info in my gallery pics.
CLICKY!!
5905K98 is it. It's wider because it's double sealed. The amount of 'extra' width has to be removed from someplace..and it's from the seals.

Well...you SHOULD have been!! No apology or backstep necessary..we're mostly a bunch of smartaleks 'round here!I wasn't trying to comment on Canyoncarvers age
You looked at the pics in the gallery (link above..or in any of my posts, actually)? They're in the 'In-Thread' album. You can see the arbor that was used..and what was removed. What's removed is metal from the outer ring of the seal. It was done on a lathe.
You can easily see it on my wonderfully fantastic holiday back-dropped pics!
From page 11 in that album:
How much was removed? I don't know that. Make some measurements of the OEM setup, make the new (fatter) bearing setup match.
