Converting a 98 FSR rear to bearings

S-M · Dec 5, 2011

I have just seen a photo of a 99 FSR elite rear chainstay with bearings fitted, iirc they are listed as 6800 2RS. It is easy enough to buy some of these, they look a direct fit.

Does anybody know which other bearings are used in the BETD bearing kit?

The various links and such?

The price of the BETD bearings kits seams a little high, when all they will be doing is ordering them in from a bearing manufacturer and sticking a load extra on top!

the betd kit were roller bearings, my bike has them installed at the chainstay, the seatstay has cartridge bearings fitted

cant seen it being much different to this guide for the enduro

You do know what retailing means, don't you? 8D
