They are needle roller bearings mate.You do get a little movement from them.I usually get my bits and pieces from Ultimate Parts. http://www.ultimateparts.net/aprili...-Aprilia-Parts-and-Spares-Genuine-OEM&i=24757
The bolt in the frame lug for the dog bone is a pig to get out.You need to take off the exhaust collector to get enough room to slide bolt out.Apart from that,its pretty straight forward.
Have fun!
No biters, none at all, Rico. So their loss, my gain.
It was a 130mile round trip to Lochcarron for my MOT last Wednesday, and had a glorious day for it which reminded me how much i love this bike, so gonna keep it. The missus aint too happy as the cash was supposed to help pay off the Evo. Oh well, im a petrolhead and need my fix huny lol.
