95 Vmax middle bearing retainer issue

[Rusty McNeil]

They are replaced with grade 8 replacements from fastnal with blue loctite now it's way better it just slips at full throttle anything under that and it's fine to ride all day long what tighten them down did was move the huge transmisson bearing in farther so I'm wondering does that bearing need to be flush with the cases because it sticks out just a little bit right now

I am pretty sure it's supposed to be flush....

The pic I have appears to be flush
...You might could use a drift pin to drive the bearing back in there fully seated....

Pic I had from when setting mid gear/output lash. It shows it flush

Your picture in the 7th post has screws that do not look like they are original. It is hard to tell for sure.

Pictures attached are of same bolt, but out of a Venture. The parts fiche shows same part number for the 95 Vmax as the Ventures though.

Screw is stainless steel, countersunk head with a hex head drive.

Screw is 25mm long, head dia. is 16 mm.

Thank you guys for the pics I believe my bearing is still just a hair out should I use a wooden dowel to drive it back in?

I have seen them sticking out just a little. Depends on the shimming needed.
