    Anyone have bearing numbers for the steering head on a 83 XC-500? I'm looking for regular bearing numbers that I can get at my local industrial supply. Thanks Scott

    Timken race is part #L44610. The bearing is L44600LA 902A1. Need two of each. Your local bearing shop will have them both. Got mine local.

    Thanks, I'll see what I can find tomm. Best I can tell, they are really rusty, is there a seal attached to the bearing?

    Yes, there is a seal on the bearing. When assembled in the head and against the race, it seals off the steering head tube.

    48300-60 is the Harley-Davidson part#. these will work in a pinch. they do not have seals attached, but Harley makes a tin dust shield that works also.

    Does the Timken come with the seals as well? I'm hoping to see decent pricing on the Timken bearing and race X2 for top and bottom.

    My local Napa was able to find them under the BCA brand, $42.00 for the pair, no shipping, with the seals attached. I'll let you know for sure when they come in. Scott

    Just got my bearings today from Napa, $21.00 each- cup/cone/seal. Bought six, for all three bikes. Thanks for your help, Scott. BTW- been parting out a 87-430XC, those bearings felt fine-not rough, when I tore it down the bottom one was a glob of rust and had almost rusted steering stem in two? That would of hurt.
