Bearing question for Curvy
Hi all,
I have a GSXR600 K1 front end coming for my Curvy SV650 Trackbike. I know you need to fit a special head bearing and did a search but after 28 pages I gave up. Can someone tell me what bearing I need to buy and where to get it from, I'm gonna fit the front end during Xmas break? Thanks HHH |

Re: Bearing question for Curvy
Bottom bearing is same as any GSXR or SV
For top you need to fit special bearing from twin works factory

Re: Bearing question for Curvy
Damn I aint getting that in time for Xmas, does no one in the UK stock it?
Or does anyone have the measurements for the bearing as it may be an off the shelf item? Last edited by hardhat_harry; 17-12-09 at 12:25 AM. |

You will be very lucky. Bearing you buy from TWF is a larger one machined down. HR32906 is apparently same but rare.

Re: Bearing question for Curvy
No reason why not. You'll need to make a spacer for the top though. I would use GSXR stem just because it is easy.
