    NORFE used to chop up some M6 bolts and use as a bearing....

    Not sayinf that's good practice but was good enough for him.

      @Ricky That doesn't look great lol.

        @Calum I've ordered 1 from yambits I was playing with the bearing idea as there can't be any difference surely

          I should not have thought so, but as said the correct ball can be had off eBay.

            Probably a daft question but with the bike off and my clutch pulled in should it freewheel or turn the engine over slightly when pushing it

              Very normal for it to turn the engine.

                @Mightyman so it wouldn't be normal if it didn't

                  Well in theory it shouldn't.. but I've found they always do.

                    Yeb, cold oil is thicker and "sticks" more, so the clutch stil drags a bit.

                      Did you figure out the cause of this problem?
