Twin motorcycles have now added the original head bearings - which are i think now impossible to get anywhere - i waited 7 months recently for a set that was on order - to the increasing range of Buell parts they are now manufacturing

and as noted they are only £11 - instead of £39 :clap:

delivery has went up but still €50 for pair delivered - plus try and find another supplier if you can and no customs on goods valued at less than €390

good news. This has probably been covered before, but has anyone devised an alternative for XBs using tapered rollers from another bike?

Ok thanks for the advice. I’ll go with Twin Motorcycles.

At the rate I’m doing miles the next set will last until 2030! :roll:
