Hi there just a quick update on my 320 exhaust rocker ,fitted new rocker and found the shimes to be wrong size .i had 3 pairs in total from previous adjustments ,so found nearest over size and ground the top face down on a square sharpening stone only 0.0 something of a mm ,this was easier than I thought and saved me waiting 3 weeks for new ones . Not sure if I mentioned I also fitted new decompression mechanism as this has not worked for the last year or 2 . End result is a bike that is almost a pleasure to start ,easy to kick over and start. Before fixing decompression I was leaning on a tree with all my weight over the bike to be able to kick it over so this is a huge improvement. Just one negative , im not sure weather I can hear a ticking on idle. I wonder if this is something to do with decompression mechanism and it will have a short life like the last one . If anyone has any experience or imformation on this it would be appreciated regards ralphy

Hi there sorry to hear about your attempt to fix your exhaust rocker it did look a difficult and tricky job , it's not a good design and is expensive for what it is , including mine i'v heard of 3 or 4 exhaust rocker faults with this bike ( it's not like the bike is popular or common ) . anyway I have just received new rocker ( 163 Australian dollars ) will attempt reassemble soon as , just hoping shims will be ok I have kept old shims so have choice of 3 sets if not will order new . Good luck with yours

Hi there got the same problem,have just ordered New rocker . Let me know how you go with the welding looks very intricate, would it be difficult to make sure you avoid touching part of one of the roller ends , I am familiar with welding through work just not tig .very interested to hear how you go ,good luck regards steve

Have been to two bearing suppliers today both informed me it's a special made for the bike , by sherco or for sherco it's a shame they could not make the bearing easily replaceable instead of buying the whole rocker arm looks like a common problem but only on the exhaust side ,maybe something to do with decompression

Hi there sherco sell the whole rocker arm at two hundred Aus dollars just seems a little expensive for what it is especially for what looks like could be a common problem

Hi there have taken roller bearing out of rocker there is no numbers or anything to help find a replacement

Hi there have the same problem with my exhaust rocker (same bike 2011) do you have any info on the size of bearing and shaft
