Ooooo you wee star, THANKS Kayla. :D
I`m off to East Fortune shortly, first race meeting of the year. Remember you and the other arf, always welcome. :wink:
By the way, can you confirm that`s:

47 mm o/d x 25 mm i/d x 15 mm wide & 55 mm o/d x 30 mm i/d x 18 mm wide ?

Bearings are usually listed as bore x diameter x width / thickness so just making sure.

I reckon I can source them cheaper than 23 quid which is the lowest price listed on EvilBay for a set, I`m guessing they might be budget bearings at that too. :roll:
SKF for me always. :wink:

Awww that`s a shame but hey there`s plenty more meetings through the year. I`ll post the dates:

Sat 28th & Sun 29th May (North East Motorcycle Racing Club).

Sat 11th & Sun 12th June (Bob Mac, classics, best race meeting of the year).

Sat 9th & Sun 10th July (Melville Moror Club, rounds of Scottish Cup).

Sat 13th & Sun 14th August (as above but I miss the August meet as it coincides with the Bulldog Bash).

Sat 10th & Sun 11th September (last Melville club meeting).

Sat 8th & Sun 9th (North East Motorcycle Racing Club, last meeting of the season).

As I`ve told you before, give me some notice if you can make any and I`ll `give up` the caravan for you and Chris as I know you don`t like camping. I`ll rough it in my tent. :wink:

In December I tracked down fork seals/dust seals for both forks and tapered head bearings with postage for $54 U.S. dollars from motorcycle-express in the U.S of A.
Thats about 35lb in your lingo and I got the lot plus postage. Tucked them away in staorage but I'm sure they are pyramid parts that had been posted from France anyhow or somewhere within cooeeee of there. Certainly didn't have a U.S. stamp on it. The rear Brake pads I recieved for $14 came from over that way also.

My bike maybe a dinosaur but it still has some bite & has a mighty roar.

And I hope the UK sticks to the pound too, ferk the Euro and Europe for that matter, it continually costs the UK just being part of it and it`s crazy laws and legislation!
We have gone decimal though Cobba, 100 pennies to the pound and all that.
Thanks folks for your bearing dimensions / codes etc, most helpful. =D>
