Sports: Re: [DucatiST] Re: Clutch Pushrod Needle Bearing.

Hi Nick,

Yes it's the same Matt. All my static tests were good. .2 ohms across the windings, no burning of wires or connectors, and no shorts to ground through the windings. Waiting to get the clutch back together to check AC output. I wasn't sure if I'd hurt anything by starting without the clutch pack in the bike.

I'm also planning on replacing the battery as it's still at 12.5V even after sitting on the battery tender for a day

Hey Matt,

Did you ever get the electrical battery/charging issues corrected/repaired on your bike, '98 ST2?

Is this the same Matt?

Hi Randy,

The bearing I am talking about is the little needle bearing that is in the shaft that the pushrod goes through. LT's book shows him greasing it in a picture in the clutch maintenance section. I'm going from memory but I think it's picture 32

Your talking about the bearing that presses into the back of the pressure plate right?

Thanks Randy,

Yes, I's definitely prefer to replace it.

Does anyone have the PN or if there is a standard equivalent? I've looked through online parts fiche and I'm unsure what bearing it is. Most of them end at 2000 so maybe the design changed? The closest I can tell is the bearing is number 76270.0827 and the seal is 93783.0812 on the Gearbox page. Do these sound correct.
