Title: Bearings kit
Post by: fest on November 23, 2022, 07:53:43 PM
Hi,

Would anyone know if these bearings would fit my kymco people 300gti 2014. As they look different to stock ones.

Hard to tell, for AMAZON guy uses different sparepart #'s than KYMCO on its sheet.
Though I guess all People models are pretty much the same.
If you got time, take them out, see a tech supplier and buy there.

I found that I can buy bearings for my Kymco scooter by referring to the kymco parts listing. Often the bearing size is listed there next to the Kymco part number and the price.
I then go to ebay and buy a nice Japanese bearing in the proper size and type from a dealer with a great ebay rep.

Thanks for your reply. Will let you know once i get them if they fit. I got them from another ebay seller but look similar like in that above link.

After technical difficulties, I am finally able to update the post.
I've managed to replace the bearings in my steering column. Not an easy job for sure. But the bike feels very different now.

I also got Steering Stem Bearing Race Removal Tool for Yamaha TRX850 1996-2000, and made the job super easy.

I highly recommend that you check the bearings, during winter when you are not riding. As there is a lot to remove. You will also need a tool to remove the handlebar too. Cyclepedia manual will come in handy too.

I'm sorry I'm reading only now this post. I've replaced the bearings on my Gti 125 and the bearings are the same of your Gti300 if I remember well. I used aftermarket ones even if different from genuine ones but they work fine for now.
