chappo Posted August 16, 2019 Report Share Posted August 16, 2019 Guys, what main bearings are you using in your OSSA Grippers. The ones i took out are SKF ( OTHER BRANDS ARE AVAILABLE ), 6205 2 RSH . I only ask as i read this in an OSSA manual, bearing in mind its not a manual for the 350 Gripper................. NOTE: The left main bearing (OSSA Part No. 991-141) is slightly different than the right main bearing (OSSA Part No. 991-140). They are essentially the same bearings, but the internal clearance between the balls and races of the left bearing are greater than in the right. This difference is noted by the letters "C3" either stamped or printed on some part of the left bearing (Fig. 76 and 77). It is not recommended that a bearing without this "C3" marking be installed as a left main bearing. I know these bearings would have had a rubber seal in them which was removed hence RS rating. Also noted is the absence of seal carriers they are just tapped into the crankcase, seems odd !!! Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rms Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 It should be 6205 standard on the right (ignition side) and 6205 C3 on the left, without seals (sealed bearings are called RS in SKF code). Radial shaft seals on the outer sides of the engine are 25x42x8 in FKM material, i used Freudenberg BABSL seals in 25x42x6 size which fit perfectly.

chappo Posted August 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 (edited) Thanks RMS, the above is excellent info for the rest. Just for clarity, these are the same spec for a 350 Gripper ? I notice you give two seal thicknesses 6mm and 8mm , are they different each side? Edited August 17, 2019 by chappo added question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rms Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 These are the specs i noticed on my 350 gripper while rebuilding my bike. The original seal was 8mm thick, but i only found 6mm seals, but it makes no difference (as for the clutch pushrod seal thickness) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rms Posted August 17, 2019 Report Share Posted August 17, 2019 if you have trouble finding these seals, go to a Yamaha dealer and ask for part n° 93102-25446 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rms Posted August 18, 2019 Report Share Posted August 18, 2019 (edited) I took notes when I rebuilt my bike. By the way, talking about bearings: front wheel bearings are 6201 2RS (need 2), rear wheel bearings 6203 2RS (need 2), steering bearings 30204 (need 2, same as TR80 250), steering bearing seals Nilos 30204AV (SKF). As I know, there is no Gripper manual, you should use the Ossa 5 speeds manual, at least for the bottom engine 'cause top engine is different.
