I somehow lost the ball that goes in between the two clutch push rods. Does anyone know what the diameter of the ball is? I am hoping to find the right sized ball bearing at a hardware store. thanks.

Best I recall it was the same diameter as the rods! Whatever that is!

put the verniers on the rod - it's the same OD.

Or try Yamaha dealer part number: 93505-16006

PS. tried responding to your mail, but your email address no worky!

Also try cycle dealers who might have a similar sized bearing

Thanks, Paul & everyone. I did as advised, and a 5/16" ball bearing seems to match. I was able to find one of those at Orchard Supply Hardware. One thing, though, it looks like the two push rods are different diameters. I measured the outer rod that pushes on the pressure plate, as I could not get the inner one out. The inner rod looks like it is a smaller diameter. Anyone remember if their clutch ball bearing was the same size as the outer rod or inner?

Paul, I do not know why my email address is giving problems. I have a received a few emails today. Thanks for catching me on this board, though.

Take a look at the ends of the rod there will be polished indentation in one end of the rod made by the ball.
