Wrist Pin Bearing for Kawasaki

This wrist pin bearing carries the small end of the connecting rod on the piston pin in Kawasaki 650 two-stroke engines, cross-referenced to OEM part 13033-1010.

Overview

This wrist pin bearing sits between the piston pin and the connecting rod small end, letting the piston pivot smoothly under load. It is built for Kawasaki 650 two-stroke powerplants, and each wrist pin bearing for Kawasaki applications is a small but critical part when you are refreshing a top end. It suits riders and rebuilders working on older stand-up and sit-down skis.

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: When should this wrist pin bearing be replaced? A: Replace it any time the top end is apart for piston or ring service, and always if the old bearing shows play, discoloration, or roughness. Reusing a worn bearing in a fresh top end risks noise and rod damage.

Q: Does this bearing need to be pressed into place? A: No, it is a slip-fit caged bearing that drops into the connecting rod small end before the piston pin slides through. Check that the new pin rolls freely in the cage once assembled.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
