3205AC3 bearing source?
« on: March 15, 2016, 03:39:16 PM »
Sorry if this is a rerun of earlier threads. I used "search" and since I rarely work on "modern" Guzzis, have only paid occasional attention to previous threads on the subject.

I have Nick D's EV torn apart for clutch replacement and started on replacing the leaking transmission output shaft seal a few minutes ago. One washer for the speedo drive is missing (well, not completely, it's now filings) and I suspect that it's responsible for damage to both speedo drive gears and for destroying the plastic cage of the output shaft bearing.  :sad: The front clutch shaft bearing (also plastic caged) feels "rough" when the shaft is spun.

So, I'll be needing new bearings obviously. Where to source them? HMB Guzzi offers a bearing marked "3205B" with "flexible cages": http://hmb-guzzi.de/Caged-ball-bearing-input-output-shafts-5-speed-gearbox



I found some 3205AC3 bearings on eBay as well: http://tinyurl.com/SKF-3205AC3-bearing

Other sources would be appreciated.

How many you want Charlie? I can get the 14 ball per race, serpentine steel cage AC3's locally very easily and they won't cost a fortune to ship.
