It is the retaining compound specifically made for bearings (not sure on specific product number), friend bit the bullet and tonight we'll try to glue it on place. Even if it works, friend is inclined to sell the bike. > #609, 620, 638, 680 as a few to start. Made to hold bearings. Will > withstand temps. up to 250°C. The top temperature on this engine, as reported on a 24hour endurance test I have read on an old magazine (the bike I recently bought has exactly same engine, thus my interest on it) is, iirc, 130C. -- T

I used it on my '99's front wheel hub. I figured the next time the bearing wears out it's going to mean a new hub, although they say you can remove the bearing if you can heat it to 250�C. I figure I'll probably destroy the hub in the process. So far it's held up just fine, though not quite the stress that a crank bearing is under ;) -- Charles '99 YZ250

While no potable alcohol was involved in yesterday's wrenching session, I feel like the guy on this song, only that the clock rang at 05:30am... El Hombre Resaka Baila Ska Ska-P Las ocho de la mañana, ya suena el despertador ya soy el hombre resaca, me case con el alcohol, me levanto de la cama, tengo que ir a trabajar, vaya mierda, que putada. ¡Quiero bailar Ska!. ¡Quiero bailar Ska! Gozo bailando Ska, Ska. ¡Quiero bailar Ska! Gozo bailando Ska, Ska. Son las nueve, estoy currando mi cabeza va a estallar, un chupito de tequila, y esto empieza a mejorar. Tengo ganas de pirarme ya no lo puedo aguantar, y es que nadie me comprende: ¡quiero bailar Ska! ¡Quiero bailar Ska!, gozo bailando Ska. ¡Quiero bailar Ska!, gozo bailando Ska. Y de nuevo estoy borracho, estoy perdido en cualquier bar, en el juego de la vida mañana hay que trabajar. Lo he perdido casi todo, mi novia no me aguantó y esque me huele el aliento a güisqui, cerveza y ron. ¡Quiero bailar Ska!, gozo bailando Ska, Ska. ¡Quiero bailar Ska!, gozo bailando Ska.
