Swinging arm bearings

#1 PostAuthor: Stogmuller » Thu Oct 10, 2019 8:46 am

Hi, anyone know which way round needle roller swinging arm bearings go,,? I’m fitting new ones to a 1982 Z1000 and one end is closed over more than the other,,,,,,! or maybe it doesn’t matter.
Usually writing on the outside but just thought I’d ask ,,forgot to check when I removed old ones,,

Doesn't matter which way they go, they aren't directional but putting the writing to the outside makes it easier to indentify the size for future replacment.
