Re: Hydraulic wont work

I agree, its a beast, but once done, I think it will be a very nice and rare type of beast :D You have to decide at that point. Decided to pull the entire bottom filter out and found that the upper siewe was totally gunked since I only cleaned the Down side. Do you think it will restrict the flow en...

Hard to find bearing

Hi folks.
Currently searching for a bearing to my Supermajor, but it seems impossible to find.
Its the needle bearing that is fitted into the back end of the main shaft coming out og the gearbox and into the clutch. (Double clutch)

Any ideas where to find it ?

Best regards
