Tiger 955 Shock Absorber Needle Bearings....where To Find?

Bearings are standardised items. If you strip it down and measure inside and outside diameter plus width you should find plenty of online suppliers offering items of graded quality.

This kind of thing......

You used to be able to put the bearings you wanted into your basket at World of Triumph and it would give the dimensions but I think they've stopped that now. Not sure if other places do the same. Once you've got the dimensions you can get replacements from Simply Bearings.

 

The easy way, if not necessarily the cheapest, is to get a set from Sprint manufacturing or one of the other specialist suppliers.

They’re usually really good, in that if you can’t find exactly what you need you can give them a ring and they’ll do their best to help.

Welcome to the forum BTW.

 

you MUST use full compliment bearigs i.e. the rollers are next to one another. Caged bearing have only 1/2 the load capacity of full compliment. Some sellers only provide caged bearing for cheapness, these are NOT fit for purpose. buy carefully. the bearing type at the top linked by callumity is full compliment.

 

Hi Fox889, and welcome in

 

hi i am looking for part no t2057965 for tiger 995i its the bearing sleeve now obsolete sorry to hijack the thread

 

Instead of hijacking another thread and apologising, why not just start your own and maybe some sort of intro too

 

Measure the old one or the hole it fills and the outside diameter of the bearing. It will be something an engineering machine shop can cut off or turn down.

 

That's the wrong size btw but I see you didn't mention that... I ordered on the basis of your dims and it should have been 17x24x20, so thanks but no thanks. My bad , I should have checked....
