somerset steve Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Does anyone know the size of the bearings needed for the rear wheel on a 200? Also why has my 200 got 2 oil seals in the front forks? Is this a benefit, are there any imrovements that i can make to there operation? Ta.

shercoman2k8 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Has one of the seals got a pring round it? If so its just a dust cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee harris Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 (edited) All early fantics up til 240 and even some 300s had 2 seals each side. The 300/301 forks had one and a dust seal although two can be fitted here also. If you can make teflon bushes turn them for 0,08-0,1 mm clearance and bin the second seal. If not, dont worry. The forks will suffer from a little stiction but are still better than most bultos, ossas and tys. Only the tlr forks are better me thinks....

lee harris Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 oh sorry bearings are either 6302, or 6203 cant remember which. I think the latter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rontheyank Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 The number is on the edge of the bearing, you might need a magnifying glass to see it if you are as old as me. think its a 6203 17x40x12 Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
