Not sure of the OD/ID of this bearing, I will be rebuilding my engine in the winter so I will find out. I hope the one thats in there now is useable as Yamaha has screwed us with discontinuing the OEM ...

Are you guys looking for this bearing?

Or your sidestand switch is faulty, broken or sticking.
