Hi drew 1491,
I'm glad to read that you've done the swap for a 290 from a 260 but sorry to hear that the bearing failed as my circumstances are different.
I'm from Perth too, and just wondering if you don't mind, would you be able to give me a hand with the swap once I source a 290, as I used to have a massive 6 X 10 shed when we were renting, but now we've bought a house North of Perth, I'm reduced to a carport!
Cheers mate,
Tez.
