K9, exchange the 3 rear axle bearings "6205-1-2RS" German manufacturer SKF: My Story

Hello BIGDOG's. Last week I got myself in my tires Discount RC in Simbach am Inn

http://www.rc-simbach.de/
(tel. +49 8571 8594)

a new Avon 300/35 R18 87V TLAV72 Cobra mount for 240 bugs. It has established the Helmut professional installation that my 3 ball bearings Timken 6205-1-2RS with the interior dimensions: 25.4 mm, external: 52mm Width: 15mm were defective. After opening the seal, we have cleaned up the camp and found that all three ball bearing raceway of the ball was damaged. My bike has 9000 mile run, but only once. My research has shown that American Timken 6205-1-2RS

is an absolute cheap junk/fuck from China. Such bearings are inferior in Germany is not even installed in wheelbarrows. Unfortunately, we were at the German bearing manufacturer SKF buy no matching stock. But Helmut was a great idea. We bought the German 6205-2RS SKF bearings with inner dimensions: 25mm x 52mm x 15mm and have them in the inner diameter of 25.4 mm (1 ") by a special expert (from factory Max Gantner +49 8571 2220) with a diamond turning tool expands (Price 50, - Euro per all 3). Since that time I drive in my rear axle 3 German SKF bearings. The ride and handling of my BIGDOG K9 has changed to positive. Beat at high speed the steering is now completely gone. Now my K9 runs better than new. Best regards from a german BIGDOG
