Hi
I need to replace the bearings on me 06 enduro again. ahs anyone got a list of the bearings i need as i reckon 40 quid is more than i need to pay for the kit of standard bearings.
Is it an easy job swapping them over?

The bearings in the horst link can be a pain to remove, if they are really worn there's the possibility that the centre's will collapse leaving the outer part of the bearing in the frame which can be a bit of a pain to get out, other than that the rest are not to bad...
most spesh dealers will have a proper bearing removing kit though that does make life a lot easier....
Out and in in less than an hour including washing. Just make sure you are hitting bearing not frame. 😆
whatever you do i'd recommend getting someone with a bearing press to insert the bearings. I wasted days and 2 bearings trying to put the horst link ones in properly - complete PITA. It bugs the t1ts off me that Spec wont sell a bearing press kit to do this, instead they want you to pay a dealer a fortune for a 1/2 hour job.
Ta for all your help folks..
Gonna be sorted this week.. man it needs doin!!

I priced up a set with a trade account at a local bearing suppliers, and it came to about £3 less than the specialised set. If you don't have a trade a/c you won't save much...
and having the proper specialized kit turns an utter three day nightmare into a breeze of a job.
