my spare bearings from my 03 sx viper fit just right on my 03 rx1. I enjoy how compatible yamahas parts are, knowing they must have done something right to keep the bearings the same from rig to rig. currently making my own rs vector gt but installed a rx1 engine. lotta good work, but surprisingly everything is bolting on as intended. sweet rig you got there buddy, hope you're having a swell winter. ✌️ just subbed! cheers from Alaska
Been there,done that. The exhaust is a pain too. I did the exhaust repair from FX Garage works. It takes a bit of fit and finish but we'll worth it, do it once and done!!!
did the jackshaft bearing on a phazer (2007). it was not as easy as the driveshaft one I just did on the nytro, but oddly enough was the same bearing. I went OEM on the phazer jackshaft original was NSK.

I just changed all the drive bearings on my Warrior this spring, now I'm glad I spent a little extra for OEM parts.
Yea we learned a valuable lesson, and I'll be doing my warrior before too long
Good luck !!
I’ve got two sleds ripped apart at the same time right now too. My garage is trashed. Srx 700 and rs rage.
I changed my jackshaft bearing a couple years ago, pain in butt, now every year I pop the seal off that bearing and repack it with fresh grease
Yea, it's worth the money to buy the oem, and it pays to re grease it. Appreciate the comment!!
Why is that old sled so clean? How'd you do that?
Just how it is the yamahas have an aluminum tunnel so they look and stay looking pretty clean
Always buy oem !!!
I know now, that's why I made the video is to let people know about our mistake
I use Partzilla. OEM parts but 30% less than my local dealer
