    ok, so some time back I thought I broke my TL with some hard riding on the way home from work. This was confirmed by trying to turn the engine over by hand and finding it to be seized hard, would not turn in either direction. I left the oil in, but will be draining it prior to splitting the...

  10. Motor Tear Down and Rebuild
    New guy here. I was given a basket case '99TLR. The motor was approx. 90% torn apart. When I got the connecting rods off I found out why it was "given" to me. The front piston's con-rod bearing wore out damaging the crank journal. After searching the forums I found this to be a rather...

    Final steps before powder coat... All I have left is to remove the swingarm bearings and the bearings that are in the setup for the rear shock. I don't know how to remove them. Was wondering if I'll need to take her to a machine shop to get the pressed out or beat them to death with a hammer...

    In the course of my swapping over to a GSXR front end I read in the manual that I need to replace the inner races for the steering bearings. Does anyone know where the hell I would get some of those? Would I have to get new bearings to get them? Also, the gsxr steering bearings I have (which...

    I am in need of the needle bearing that goes in the middle hole of the wishbone. I have checked all the local bearing places and they all say it is a special bearing. I don't want to order this from ron ayers because I am leaving for the dragon on the 26th and last time I ordered from them it...
  15. Suzuki TL1000R & TL1000S Forum
    Did the '97 and '98 S come out with different size front wheel bearings? My TLS was manufactured 3/97, my mates in 10/97. He had just replaced his bearings, so I thought ,rather than take them out and wait while the engineering supply shops sends away for that size, I'd take my mates old ones...

    Manged to locate these taper bearings to suit the TL . these cost me $10 each from a bearing supply shop. The part number is a 32006 not sure if anyone else is using these but I thought I'd post then "just in case". Aftermarket equivalents thru the bike shop were $85 a pair.
