@Calum well i say that what i mean is you can change the top bearing to taper bearings instead of the standard ring bearing
-
@Walney-Reptiles Not without changing the the yokes/bearing cup.
I done it cause I fitted USDs. But otherwise, no. Or I'm sure it could be done, but what would be the point?

-
Well i have had some Post Today
Swingarm bearings and bushes and seals aka service kit
Linkage bearings and bushes and seals aka service kit
Head race Taper bearings top and bottom

@Walney-Reptiles where’d you get the linkage kit from pal?
-
ebay mate heres the link if its allowed it cost £110 but it beats paying £355 from MSP
-
@Walney-Reptiles don’t suppose you could measure those linkage seals for me bud?
-
@Walney-Reptiles well with your setup i would recommend some 28mm - 32mm carb. for example a mikuni tm28 or a keihin pwk 28. im running a keihin pwk 36 on my dt but i have a 170cc kit on it. its still too big for the bike
