ATHENA offers this needle bearing for HONDA MTX 80 1982-1984. Fitted in the small end of the connecting rod, it carries the piston pin and works on every stroke of the piston, at very high revs.
The benefits:
Athena, founded in 1973 by Giovanni Mancassola near Vicenza and based in Alonte (Italy), designs gaskets, pistons and cylinder kits; it supplies original equipment to manufacturers such as KTM, Ducati, Fantic and Triumph.
Every time you change the piston: a worn needle bearing develops play, runs hot and can break, causing major engine damage. Also replace it if the needles are marked or blued, or if it turns with tight spots.
