good morning to you all.
i got a zxr750 rear wheel that might need the bearings replacing. how ever it might just need a new spindle. (broke me gages). so i was hoping that one of you could point me to a site that would give me make of bike and bearing size. tried looking last night but all i could get was bearing sizes or what bike they can supply bearings for. i know its prob not making sence.
but cheers for any help :D

the bearings do have a number and letter prefix stamped on them this denotes the size and the type of seal that is in the bearing so for instance you should have a number like 6205rs and their may be a manurfactures name on them like timkin if you cannot find this either take them to your local bearing supplyer who will identifie them for you or mesure them with a vernier :p also buy the best bearings as you can get cheap ones dont last long

thanks people. i had to take the wheel of any way to change the brake pads. got all the numbers for the bearings in a safe place now. turns out its not the bearings. its the spindle. its about 3 fag papers to small. i got some plastic verniers but there good. they said the spindle was bigger than the bearing bore.
the next bit is the sprockets. got a fixed back wheel. need to take a link out. chains not worn in normal adjustment terms. unfortunatly i can only remove half a link. if i got a sprocket 1 tooth smaller on the back would this give me 2 links. hope that made sence.
cant go any bigger on the front.
ta :D
