Thanks @BuRP for your replies. The efficiency thing @Welsh mentions is the motor suppliers' reasoning for the use of ZZ as well as heat from the 2RS bearings. In practice though I, like @BuRP, toss the ZZ bearings pronto unless there is a really good reason not to. I think the real reason behind...

Curious to hear how these bearings are holding up. We had numerous failures on ZZ bearings of C&U bearings fitted to new Actom motors recently.

Please add me too - 08three262036two Thanks!

Thanks superfoxi, I'll contact you to see if we can make a plan.

🤣 I need it for a CRF230. There are few other possible candidates but the XR600 shock would be easiest to fit.

Some background info...I already own one but "NEED" another. ;) The one I have is bit tatty but that's OK as I want to make it into my offroad-only TTR with the new one the one for dirt road touring. I have seen a few on the net for sale over the years that would have been ideal but I didn't...

Anyone have a Honda XR600R shock lying around?

Wanted: "new" TTR250 Anyone know of one for sale that is as near as possible to as new condition? Any leads appreciated.

The 180 isn't much bulkier than the 150 and would do all you mention above plus the wheel nuts on the bike.

I got the 150mm and 180mm versions. The 150mm one opens to 27mm and the 180mm one to 40mm. They work very nicely on water, air and hydraulic pipe fittings. There is a 250mm version too. Like a shifting spanner they are a little bulky and don't just fit in everywhere BUT are infinitely quicker to...

I have 2, in different sizes. Similar to a shifting spanner in many ways(good and bad) just better...at a price though.

So much fun was had. It was pouring with rain but that did not dampen my spirits at all. A couple of hours of single-track and I was in heaven..on earth mind you. I'm a sucker for smaller (read weaker) bikes. So easy to ride. Feels like cheating compared to wrestling a full size 250, 450 or 500...

Thanks Warren. Taking it for a test ride in the dirt this weekend.🥳

Turns out that the seats up to 2008 differ from 2009 omwards. The earlier ones are wider at the tank as the tank is different to the later ones. The seats are interchangeable though as the mountings are the same but there is the difference in width against the tank.

I'll have a lowered all red CRF230F seat next week that I'm looking to swap for a standard (preferably) or higher CRF230F seat. Colour not important.

Looking for a CRF230F seat. Can be almost in any condition. Not sure if the 3 versions of CRF230's used the same seat. Let me know what you have. Thanks. A swap is also possible if someone has a standard seat and would prefer a lowered seat.

I'll take it please. Anyone know of a seat lying around?

As 'n TTR250 se handguards die selfde is kan jy myne kry. Ek sal hulle uitgrawe en toestand check.

Interesting dilemma....naming bad dealers. It's like working in intelligence...collect, guard and use information. All this helps homo sapiens into plenty shit. My bad experience: Sent a mate to check out a lekker second hand famous brand 2.7litre petrol 4x4 double cab at a dealer (same famous...
