Priced at $3 I don't think that is needle bearings?
This is the same drawing also used by ajp and gasgas and looks like the sleeve that would run inside the bronze bush.

Wonder why some have a proper bearing while some have a bush?

4rvid, can you give measurements for your bronze bush please.
Does the bronze bush run directly on the gearbox input shaft?
Or is there a spacer/sleeve that's fits over the shaft first that the bronze bush would run on?
