The
good news is that according to the INA catalogue, an INA SC1412 full
complement needle roller assembly, including outer race will do the
job. bad news is that they are no longer listed, but Torrington
(Timken) list that same sized bearing as a B1412.
They
are 1.125 inch OD, 0.750" wide and the shaft diameter is 0.875"
which is a couple of thou less than the sleeve diameter in a stock GT750
suspension.
Of
course when I pressed them in I managed to slightly damage one and in
trying to get that out I managed to damage its partner.
Of
course the bearing spacer has to go in after one side is done, otherwise
it cannot be fitted after the bearings are in place.
OK,
so we now had a pair of 3/4" wide needle rollers in each side, but the
swingarm needs thrust washers at the end, so the old plastic bushes were
sawed off, leaving about 2 to 3mm of the old sleeve. When they were
pressed back into the ends of the swingarm we had thrusts.
Next,
on were new steel thrust washers from Bikebandit.com along with new inner
sleeves, O rings and re-plated end caps.
