that's the right part number, its the main shaft clutch side bearing, its an OEM bearing as far as I have been able to find out so all of the bearing places I tried couldn't get one like it, Yambits do one which is the same make as the Yamaha one, but the bearing is expensive - circa £40, noit sure where Yambits are getting them from, but they are the right one and I've had no problems with the ones I've had from them - one of the few things I still buy from them TBH

This is the bane of my life.
New Bearing (TSS Upgrade), New bush, new spacer, new thrust washers, billet basket, wiseco rubbers.
Still got play and a clatter off the primary shaft/Clutch basket

movement in and out is ok - to a point anyway, as that is taken out when the clutch assembly etc is all tightened up.
side to side is not good as isn't up and down

Strange though the bearing is nice n smooth so can't see where the movement is , so should I strip it back down and change it?

its a dual race bearing, it does get some hammer and is the bearing that normally fails more than most, if there is any up and down movement with the clutch basket etc removed, e.g. you are holding the shaft and that is moving up and down then the bearing is on its way out. If its not much you might get away with it, but if its say a few millimeters or more then I would be changing it as its a full engine strip down to change at a later date if it fails

Hi, Are you checking for play with the clutch basket etc all built up onto the shaft?, or are you getting the play by holding the shaft and waggeling it without the clutch etc fitted?
You will feel slight play if the clutch basket etc is fitted to the shaft, but if you are getting play on the shaft itself, before the clutch basket etc is all fitted, then that is a bit more serious.
steven.

I have in and out play with everything installed. You can hear it clattering through the clutch side and the opposite side of the shaft. Only at idle. Steve

Steve, sounds like your gear cluster needs shimming up, there are very thin shims between some of the gears, this is to take/remove some of the side play, basically if memory serves me right you shouldn't have much more than a few thou of movement on the gears, the shims tend to get worn through and "disappear", most gearboxes that I have stripped and rebuilt have always been minus the shims or left with just wafer thin ones

I used a very low miles 250 gearbox which seemed perfect so I never even took them apart. Was at a loss till I had the case off for some thing else and noticed if you pulled in and out on the basket it made the noise. Only done 800 miles since building the motor in 2 years so will get round to stripping it again eventually lol You live and learn. Cheers for the advice Steve

Did you replace the bearing at the other end of the shaft? I had this on my LC2 when I built it up with a New Genuine clutch shaft bearing and noticed slight side to side play after building the clutch up. Decided to strip the cases again and replaced the bearing at the other end of the shaft, built it up again and the play had gone. Shown on the parts list as "Bearing, cylindrical" item #13 on the gearbox section.

When checking or ordering parts from Fowlers website take the hyphens out of the part number. They have this in stock. I am no great fan of Fowlers but I am really surprised how much they keep in stock for a 30+ year old bike.
If you order any special order parts though they don't keep you informed of the progress of the order and they can take ages to arrive.

yes you can, but trying to machine a bearing race is a bloody nightmare, they are as hard as hell, so not worth the hassle TBH
