OK so after a week of tinkering, I stripped my engine of EVERYTHING in order to have the cases powder coated. Anyhow i am 99.9999 percent done but Honda decided to throw me one more challenge which i can not figure out. Look at the pics. See these two bearings, they are pressed in, in 2 different places. There is no way to get a tool under them to pry them up....Any engine vet's have the anwser.......Thanks
Last step of crank case disassembly help!

Or you can just pull it out, powder coat the case, and pop it back in.

See if you can read any numbers off the side of the bearing, needle bearings are hard to find sometimes. The fiche will tell you the number sometimes but not always. If you can see a number should be 4 digits and maybe a letter on the end call all the bearing places you can find, as far as you want to drive and see if anyone has that number. Also if you take the part number from the fiche sometimes you can cross reference at your local shop and they can find that same part # on a diffrent bike and maybe that number may supersede to another number that is available. Most shops either dont know or dont care enough to spend that much time on 2 bearing but, every once in a while you will find someone who knows how and will spend the time to do it for you. I know for a fact Honda uses that bearing one or more of there hundreds of models they have produced. Try honda east of toledo, they are pretty good and then you can just have them shipped to you. If I think of anything else I will post it. Peace

Also use a magnifying glass to try to identify bearing, oil gets in the scribe of the numbers. Hard to read sometimes. If you don't see the # they screwed you and pressed the # side into the cases. Good Luck

There is no such puller to remove that type of bearing . And if there is ??? , it'll most likely wreck the bearing coming out .
They say to chisle it out ???
You'll wreck the bearing that way too !!!!!!And as for warping of the cases ..., I can't see how a heat gun is gonna do that kind of damage to engine cases .
I've done this to auto trans cases when installing shaft bearings on cars before with no problems . My local machine shop has an oven which heats cases up to I think ?? , 300 degrees ???? He will pre-heat the cases before welding them up for repairs so they don't warp while weld'n them .
ANYWAYS ..., ??? If I'm not mistake'n ?, he also mentioned that at that temp the case bearings usually fall out with ease .
Try your local machine shop , they will help you out one way or another .

It's a stem puller and they work but yeah no guarantee you will get it out in piece that way either. I have always froze cases to put bearings in, but thats it as far as freezing at heating, I dont think a heat gun would ever have enough heat to warp anything either.

Ok here's what i got......
The bearing says
Japan (typical ) NTN 7E-HKS 13.5 X 20 X 12
That was one bearing the other is to worn down to get any reading off of....im assuming they are both the same size...they look as though they are....

One bearing has an ID of 13.5mm, the other one has a 14mm ID. Just measure the ODs of both trans shafts that go in those bearings.

I may be stating the obvious but...In my little town we have a place that sells nothing but bearings. You can take a bearing to them and they measure it and go to the back. They come back with a bearing that dimension wise is a exact match. They are made with quality steel or ceramic and they cost less than a OEM part. Why does the bearing have to be from a motorcycle dealer, distributor, or related industry? They don't make the bearings they have someone do it for them and they have them marked (Plus marked up) and then packaged. IMHO
