Replying to all. I have a Borg and Beck clutch in my Stag. It has a generic
bearing in it. Changing gear is very heavy. Folks say to use the RHP
bearing, I don't have a bearing in hand to compare what the difference is.
I have a Koyo bearing at hand and some folks say don't use it other's say
they have used it. What I have gathered is that the contact point of the
bearing on the fingers of the clutch plates makes the difference in feel.
The Koyo bearing's contact point is farther out from the generic one I have
so if I use that, changing gear maybe heavier.
