'97 DTR renovation anthracite / metallic blue
-
Because of the powder-coating I will need new bearings and sealings for the swing arm and the connection metal piece thing (Nr. 13 in the picture: https://www.bike-parts-yam.de/yamaha-motorrad/125-MOTO/1997/DTR/DT125R/SCHWINGE/7_747-747/B21/0/1601). Any idea where I can get them cheap? Yamaha original is 43€ a piece..

@declan An aftermarket set of koyo crank shaft bearings (set of 2) costs around 50€. Therefore 43€ for a single bearing without any sealing (it needs 4) seems pretty expensive to me.

I got all mine from Simply Bearings. Might have been £50 all in. I really can't remember. But they're as good as OEM.

Wemoto to a partial kit and Fowlers have the rest - pricey though and will probably cost a pretty penny to do the whole lot

@Calum Thanks a lot! Yeah I heard of that mighty "search" function, should use it more often.
@Nottsbiker Wemoto is nice but lacks some parts, Fowlers is like buying at the local Yamaha dealer
Only shipping to Germany seems to be an issue. There is a great supply in UK, and almost no supply on the continent. Found a kit for the swing arm:

But for the linkage the only kit I found is the one you posted:
Do you maybe know another seller which does ship to Germany? I already emailed him and asked for it.

If you literally go to
You can type the sizes of the bearings into their search engine and buy it from them.
