Padgett's of Batley have asked HB Bearings Motorsport Division to manufacture bespoke bearings for this years Isle of Man Classic TT race. With only a 3 week lead time, HB are pulling out all the stops to get the bearings delivered on time.

The non standard bearings are for Padgett's 1993 RS250 Honda to be ridden by Bruce Anstey. Bruce rode the same Honda for Padgett's last year setting a new lap speed of 118.774 mph, finally breaking the course record which was set way back in 1999.

Due to ever increasing interest in classic and historic car and motorcycle racing, HB cater strongly for this sector as well. We have manufactured numerous bearings for all types of classic and historic racing machines.

Bearings can be reverse engineered from original samples if no other information is available. 
With manufacture in the UK, HB can offer short lead times and low volumes.

We are exhibiting at the Autosport show in January 2018 at the NEC Birmingham. Pay us a visit if you are visiting and see the quality of our work for yourself. Revisit this page later in the year for more details.

HB Bearings Motorsport Division are delighted to be able to offer a low volume, high quality, bespoke bearing manufacturing service to keep these great machines racing.

Check back with us after the race to see how Bruce faired!
