If you are using ball bearings - 1/4" Diameter Steel Ball Bearings - Top and bottom have the same part number - 600A0-800 39. total number = 39 (top and bottom).

I tried buying tapered bearings from our local bearing place here in Oz....couldn't be done?
From what the guy told me the standard size bearing has to be machined slightly to size
Ended up buying the "All Balls' kit in the end.

Head and Swing arm bearings

#5 PostAuthor: Vendetta761 » Fri Feb 22, 2013 11:23 am

Hi there, I am looking for head and swing arm bearings for my Z 1000 ST, the ones on Z power seem a little expensive so i thought i would shop around, can any one recommend an alternate supplier of quality kit or should I bite the bullet and sell more non bike related material possessions to get the real thing ?

I advertised a set of ST head bearings on here some weeks ago and no- one was interested!! Try looking through the forum.

I can't find the advert even looking through all of my posts. I still have the top and bottom set for the ST if you want them.
