High Speed Bearings

Try going to a local bearing supply house. press you old bearings out first so the bearing house can either get the numbers or measure the dimensions. Bearings are all standard, no one use a custom bearing. 30 years ago I bought a crank bearing for a 2 stroke Suzuki at a bearing house. The part was in stock. Suzuki want 3 times as much and 2 weeks to get it. The bearing house matched it by dimensions.

I do not know if there is a specific sub category for high speed , but there is a sub category for bearings having tighter tolerances than a standard bearing.
You just have to specify that you want the tighter tolerance bearing.

I just looked on ALLDATA - They don't sell or service those bearings - Your have to buy an idler pulley or the component itself as far as I can tell.

HI!... All I did was going down to WINDSOR BEARING here in town. I popped out my belt tensioner and idler pully bearings and brought them in with me. The guy behind the counter asked me if I wanted regular or high speed bearings. I said high speed and wallaaaa! Handed to me and out the door I went. I think both bearings cost me about $8.00(CAN)
