    I found a couple of sets of 200x bushings I forgot about. I don't know what shipping to Australia would be though.

    A previous owners handywork, both bearings on the same side, and a wear lip about 1" inside the tube on LHS, bugger!! The bearings are not moving, might need a press.

    The bushings will replace everything except the pivot bolt.

    Thanks mate, i had a feeling thats all it was, wanted to be certain. Not at all surprised they arent available. I can only get very infrequent access to lathe, need tank bolts also, i will try to whip both up next time i get on it.

    Should get the forks done in next few weeks,

    I measured the stems, my X has two different sized bearing spigotts, yes i checked it 3 times, Is this normal behaviour for a 200X stem?

    Told you 3 times already you need to bore the 250R lower triple out some to it fis in the 200x stem because it was larger DIA then the 250r. Why are you questing the same thing over and over after I keep telling you how and what's needed done.

    ........ Please just listen to me because I have done this on many bikes. It's easier then logging into 3WW
    Wooback old mate, im not questioning it, i get that, no dispute, didnt mean to dispute what you said, i get the swap proceedure you gave, apologies mate, seriously ..... I refered only to the 200x stem in my question
    You can not use R bearings in the 200x. R bearings are tapered. 200x ones are loose balls.
    this made me think tapered were out of the question, sorry i didnt get it right
    i didnt explain it properly, i want to replace the bearings with TRB's, im missing 7 balls from the X bearings [yes, i caught all that came out], so i dont see an alternative in this case. There are many kits around that are tapered roller for "replacement for ball bearings" for the X [as you probly know]. I just found it unusual to see 2 different sized spigotts on the 200X stem,

    i was just seeking confirmation/opinion on that, so i can confirm that any bearing replacements are the appropriate fit, sorry if this upset you. I have it now, thanks again
