What is the difference between standard and oversized bearings?

Standard (STD) bearings are used when the crankshaft journals are still within their original factory specifications. Oversized bearings (like -010, -020, etc.) are used when the crankshaft has been machined undersize to remove wear or damage.

What does the 'XP' in XP Series mean?

The XP Series from King Engine Bearings indicates a specialized bearing design that uses an advanced overlay material. This material is engineered to offer improved load capacity and temperature resistance compared to standard bearings.

Do I need to measure my crankshaft journals when installing these bearings?

Yes, it is always recommended to measure your crankshaft journals to ensure they are within the specified tolerances for standard size bearings. This helps confirm proper oil clearance and prevents premature bearing wear.

About this part

Product Details

If you're rebuilding the engine in your Suzuki GSXR1000 from 2005-2008 or 2012-2016, getting the main bearings right is crucial. These bearings sit between the crankshaft and the engine block, supporting the rotating assembly and handling significant loads. King Engine Bearings is a well-known name in performance and racing circles, and their XP series main bearings are built for demanding applications.

The XP series uses a specialized overlay material that's designed to handle higher loads and temperatures compared to standard bearings. This means they can offer improved durability and consistent performance, especially in high-revving or modified engines. This set is for standard size (STD) applications, meaning it's intended for crankshafts that are still within their original factory specifications. Proper installation is key, so make sure to follow the manufacturer's torque and clearance specifications when putting your engine back together.
