Minor differences in dimensions are compensated for by using selective bearings. For
further information on bearing part number to colour cross-references, see the latest
parts information.
Always confirm, using the Plastigauge method, that the running clearance is correct
before final assembly. Severe engine damage could result from incorrect clearance
resulting in loss of motorcycle control and an accident.
Repeat the measurements for all respective journals.
It is normal for the bearings selected to differ from one journal to another.
1. Select the correct bearings as follows:
2. Measure and record the diameter of each crankshaft bearing journal.
3. Measure and record each bearing bore diameter in the crankcase (bearings removed,
journal caps fitted and all fixings fully torqued).
4. Select and install the correct bearings by matching the information found in the main
bearing selection chart.
5. Install the new bearings.
6. For bearing selection refer to Main Bearing Selection Chart.
