replacement Guide wheels

[badlarry]

I know this is going to be an easy answer here. Are there any replacement wheels available for the upper guide wheels that mount on th top of the skid that hold the track up where it mounts to the tunnel. Are they the same as the rear axle wheels? I need them and if they are the same as the accessory rear axle wheels I want to get the colored spoked ones for their replacements.

You can just change the bearings if thats all thats bad, they are replaceable on those wheels

 

[badlarry]

thats cool but can you use the colored accesory wheels or the billet wheels therre with a diff bearing??

 

[AttakDog]

not sure about that, not many people use billet there since you can barely see em...

the uppers use 6205 bearings(52mm)....rear axle wheels use smaller diameter bearings(3/4")

dan, can I buy the spoked wheels from the yamaha accesoty catalog and add the 6205 bearings with no other mods?? I was going to switch out two of my rear axel wheels, and put the 6205's in it will it fit w/o issues?? Also how is your skid holding up. with all the mods you did to it. Looks good in the november pics, two months later and probably some miles? still workling well??

No, that will not work. The bearing sizes are as follows:
Rear idler 6004 bearing diameter = 42mm, width 12mm
Upper idler 6205 bearing diameter = 52mm, width 15mm

upper wheels need to remain stock or billet with proper bearings.
