bearing fail (urgent)

Hay

sorry to be a pain in the arse but i need my bike up and running within the next 3 days and at the mo.....its not working!

the sprocket carrier bearing has....well...exploded! its damaged the wheel bearing case a tiny bit (dented it in a touch). also dinked a little bit of the hub, but with a file i can sort that.

So i might as well change both wheel bearings and the sprocket carrier. i think i have the numbers for them (can anyone confirm?) so will see if i can get them from somewhere other than yamaha (as im not a millionaire )

never really dealt with bearings that much in the past. I know putting them in you should put them in the freezer over night and run a heat gun over the hub / sprocket carrier.

BUT...its getting the ******s out. PLEASE ADVISE as this is a race against the clock

Thanks guys
