    Just at a glance the bearing shell selection may have numbers for the journal diameter and conrod bore diameter - that's all you're tying to work out

    If the different shells come with the material thickness listed also - then measure the conrod bore diameter minus twice the shell material thickness which should yield the appropriate big end journal diameter

    If the parts details don't give the material thickness then what I've just described is useless

    peace out

    Hey Carel

    Click on the Resources button (on the top of the page), once it loads, then look for the heading Categories on the left hand side, then click on Yamaha then FZR250

    check out this item no. on ebay 251524660573 it says conrod bearings but they are crank main bearings... buying yamaha will cost a fortune if they are still available, if yours is a 400 I think they do those also... the only time you would use color coded bearings is if you are planning on racing and you want absolute precision clearances, otherwise a standard aftermarket set will do.
