Looking for some help. My 19 kx450 got a good bit of wear out of the stock roller less a lot of documented issues by most owners. TM designs have a roller now but its out of stock om backorder. I bought a ufo roller that said it was for a 2019. The bearing should be recessed but it was flush? The mounting lock nut would not thread the roller shaft. I emailed the place that sold it to me and they said several were sold but only I had the issue. Maybe the label was wrong from ufo? Am I missing something? Any other folks know where to get one? Thanks!

16-18 OEM with 2 bearings or 19 OEM. I replaced with a 16-18 OEM from the start.

Dumb question but I am new to current Kawi's with a '21 KX250. Are you able to typically snag the old bearings out of the original OEM roller and just replace the wear item (part number 92122-0016)? Or best to order new bearings? Bearing part numbers appear to be the same.

If your old bearings are in good condition, I would just replace the rubber roller. That is Funny! I just looked up the 21 450/250 and they went back to the 2 bearing system. That was the issue for the wear on the 19, single bearing.

In order to make that ufo roller work I figured out it had two bearings and had to pull the first one out. Smh. Will the 2 bearing 21 kx450 fit the 19?

Yes. The part numbers are the same as the 16-18 OEM.

In case anyone sees this, I just used the aftermarket lower chain roller one I bought for my 17 KX450F.
