I have a set of 1WT cases that are really tidy EXCEPT, the right main bearing hole is worn. I’m guessing a bearing has ‘chattered’ in the hole and worn it. With the cases clamped up, I can move the outer race of the bearing so clearly no use as is. Anyone got any experience of repairing similar or got any suggestions?

Would stud/bearing lock do it ?

This guy is probably one of THE best around for anything two-stroke. The bloke has been doing this for years and bloody good at it. Best prepped engines for years and a proper gentleman. If he can't do it right, he won't do it at all. Very quick in his day too. Goes by the name of Leon Lerego, possibly many will already know of him or have a distant memory of him. Take a look on his facebook account. www.facebook.com/leons.tzclassics/ |

Russie, he's got some videos on there somewhere machining bearing surfaces on TZ750's and reclaiming knackered cases.
I doubt if he'll be cheap but if he does it you won't be dissapointed.

I’ll have a browse to find the videos. Yes, I suppose the cost could easily be more than the cost of a second hand set of cases. I’ll see what his reply is.

That would be the measure of your next step for sure, ypvs cases can still be sourced, relatively cheaply, I doubt its the same for TZ cases, so probably well worth him repairing those at his price, whatever that may be. |
