Hi all Any idea where I can get one for a 2005 motor? Tried a couple online but they send the bigger one for the upgraded clutch (2006 onwards i think..) Thanks for any pointers Phil.

Generally bearings have a number stamped around the outside-eg 6204 which is a common wheel bearing. Failing that get yourself a vernier caliper and measure inside and outside diameters, and depth. You can cross check these at a bearing supplier to hopefully track down the correct bearing. This will give you a reference to search. Try people like Simply Bearings, they're pretty good. Good luck BTW is that how the bearing is supplied? I'd have expected it to be contained within an outer race, surely can't go straight into an engine casting like that.... like these https://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/B...ection=Single+Row+Cylindrical+Roller+Bearings
Hi Mr Boosh Thanks for your reply. Its not a roller bearing..its a one way clutch. It allows drive from the starter to turn the crank but once running the crank freewheels inside it. Phil
A sprag clutch bearing is completely different from an ordinary roller bearing, the rollers are an eccentric shape designed to transmit drive in one direction only,( the starter can turn the engine but not the other way round) they are a special item not usually supplied by bearing factors.
The last one l bought was for an apprila 650, can't remember the price, but an identical item for a BMW f650 was much cheaper! In my experience they come as part of the starter clutch assembly,l cannot confirm who actually makes them but I'm pretty sure they are "bought in" by motorcycle manufacturers.
