    I've got play in the upper shock bearing on my 2010 TE250, not taken it off before, what's in there guys? Bearing, bush, rose joint?? Any after market replacements or is it genuine only?

    Cheers.

    I put some lithium waterproof grease in there and have kept riding. I think it's basically a bush/collar, not sure of the price there but here in "Aust-oh-so-you-have-a-motorcycle-you-must-be-a-millionaire-ralia" it was going to cost me something above $200 for it..

    im sure that maybe some one like pivot works or all balls do kits, or maybe if you have a local bearing house and you are confident that you can remove the the bearing yourself take it and see if you can get it matched up.

    Thanks guys, rang a Husky dealer and, as you say, it's a spherical bearing and will cost me £58 including seals, bit expensive for what it is. A bit more digging and the size is 12mm inside diameter, 26mm outside diameter and 16mm width and has a bearing code of GEBJ12S. I've found them on ebay in china for $8, may order one and give it a go. All balls etc don't list these bearings so seems no other option than over priced genuine.
