Universal joints

[activpop]

I've got one axis on the rear that doesn't articulate smoothly...did a search for this problem but didn't come up with much. Are there replacement parts available...like needle bearings and cup?

You would have to replace the entire cross (universal joint). There is a source in the Encyclopedia of Compatible Parts . . .

okay, here it is:

I assume this is related to your Moto Guzzi Stelvio 2012?

Here's the part from this site in French which I have not vetted yet; https://www.pieces-motoguzzi.com/moto-guzzi-motos/1200-MOTO-GUZZI-MOTORCYCLES/STELVIO/2012/Stelvio-8V-STD--NTX/Chassis/Transmission-cpl/415/70/1028002262/976

In any case, the part does not look like from a CARC, but if you have no luck anywhere else, including used spares, maybe I can check with them. They sell parts everywhere in the World, and I would think they can answer in English.

Yes, please clarify, @activpop, V11 or Stelvio?

I just got the Stelvio last week...no time to get into it yet. Who do you think I am?...Speedy Linguini?   I'll keep questions about that on the proper page.

I wonder if these V11 replacement universal joints are available still from that same supplier in Montreal. Or if they could be sourced elsewhere?

If you change them out, remember to retain the special, angled, reduced size Zerks fitted to your originals.

Those are the ones he says are in stock...CR15's. I sent him the pic for confirmation.

I found them in Romania...Montreal is still closer.
