    Axle/bearing fit

    Got some new rear bearings today,should I shim the axle so it is a tight fit in the bearings or leave it ? The axle is approx .005" smaller than the bearings but I can't see any wear on it.

    Honda Atc110 1982

    Thanks Brian

    might be the wrong bearing. there shoudl not really be any play in the bearing and axel fitment. Talk about viberation and stress fractures!
