  • Rear left wheel bearings

    I just posted in the spares for sale section of the forum but thought I would double up here as this bit is busier usually and i can point people in the right direction. I have a small supply of rear left wheel bearings available....... Details in the other thread..........

            hi james, I bought a spare bearing from you last year, hope i'll never need it. ran across a guy with a beat up xs1100 last week here in phoenix Arizona. just out of curiousity we put his bike up on the centerstand and spun the rear wheel. crunchiest sounding bearing I've ever heard! I think he'll be ordering one from you very soon. thanks for all you do for this group

              Oops! Sounds fairly typical. I see you did not chivalrously offer him your spareVery wise!

                  As long as the address prints correct I never have to worry about US mail here but UPS gets lost sends my stuff to other places tells me I was not at home etc etc.


                  Thanks Sir Barron of Bearings
                  To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.

                    Well, you'll be live to know that the bearings are delivered by USPS and that I make sure the package is thin enough to go through a standard letterbox!

                      Yeah, but is that UK or US letter size?? I've still one spare, so I will wait to see if anyone else needs one before I get greedy.

                        Universal fit! I carried out a global survey of letterbox sizes. Only mailboxes in the Antarctic are too small.....

                        It's very noble of you to wait but it's first come, first served, and everyone knows they are here. So get one if you want.
