Hi.
As I did not have the bearing type fitted to my early 1963 MDS cush drive, I took them to a local bearing company who identified them and sold me the pair. They cost me £32.50 (pair). I later once I new the reference type which is KLNJ 3/4 R12. looked on the good? old EBAY and found a pair of new bearings for £10.20 (pair). Never mind this may help others.
Another interesting one for John Collard is that my 24MDS left the factory in March 1963 with a engine number of 085E200 which villiers list as a 9E 197cc. Interesting did Greeves use old 9E bottom ends with 36A con rods and Greeves Square barrels? Any one know?
