BIG REAR IDLER WHEELS / please help

[grumpysanta]

I have a question , is the middle wheel in the rear suspension exactly the same as the two outer ones except for color design ???? and what can i replace it with that has a removable bearing and clip , like i have done with the other 6 small idler wheels. this is on a 05 rx1er , never had so much problem with wheels until yamaha tried to save weight and money , puttting on these cheap wheels and bearings. i would rather have a reliabe bearing than save a gram.. and those wheels are much more expensive to us..

yes the rear axel wheels are the same. buy some aftermarket replacements with removable bearings. the rear wheels on the srx also had removable bearings.

[Yamadog]

I bought all yellow spoke bogies and outside rear axles I left the solid middle on the Attack and grey ones for the RX.

 

[grumpysanta]

middle is dead

[Yamadog]

There Yamaha right out of the catalog but they are heavy duty with removable bearings not the crap they put on the new sleds

Just go to Port Yamahas web site and look in aftermarket catalog I think all 8 were $185
