October 10, 201213 yr Anybody know what size the taper bearing used in the '98 315? I'm sure they should be a fairly standard one but not been able to find it. 'Official' bearings seem very expensive
October 10, 201213 yr Bearings have a code etched on the edge of the race, so it might be worth removing yours and checking the numbers, then source a quality replacement from a bearing supplier. I'm only guessing, but it should be something like 32004 (which measures 20mm ID x 42mm OD x 15m Width) or perhaps a 32005. If you can't get the code off them, try measuring them, then google the measurements. Other than that try one of the Montesa specialists like Sandifords or H&D Racing.
October 11, 201213 yr Author Ahhhh, got it. Yesterday when I measured the bearing I came up with a diameter of 42mm but I was measuring the actual bearing and not the bearing/cup combination which is 47mm. For those that are interested, on my bearing it says it is a 4TCR0574 which translates to a 32005X[26] bearing. Mucho cheapness on t'interweb compared with official Honda price of about £23.
