Cush Drive Rubbers

[QUOTE=Crazydog;23694184]Like all of us that have the XT660`s , the cush drive rubbers wear is a pain.


I found an article some time ago on the XT660.com thread.

The chain drive sprocket takes a tremendous load from the power of the engine , which causes the rear wheel bearing to wear excessively , even wearing the Chain Drive Hub Housing ,
The bearing will become loose in the housing at a later stage,

I fitted a double row bearing as apposed th the std single *row bearing.
And with Polyurethane rubbers .I got 56 000km without changing the rubbers again.

You only have to machine the rear hub bearing housing 5mm deeper /
The Bearing I used is still the same dia. as the original.
And machine the inner spacer also 5mm shorter.
It still uses the Standard Yamaha Seal





[size=10pt][size=10pt] Bearing no, 62304.2RS From Bearing Man[/size][/size]
