All you do is whip off the cylinder. Take out the retaining clip, and you can easily slip the wrist pin out by hand. The bearing will then fall into the crankcase if you're not careful lol. No special tools needed.
Where did you get the k101415 and how much was the shipping, I drove down to Motion Ind. and they had to order it but shipping was twice + the price of the bearing. $4.99 about $18.oo all together, No Way!!!! will I spend that on shipping and I can't find the part in Motion Ind. catolog

Talking about the rated rpm for piston pin bearings is meaningless. They oscillate! This means a very different strain. Therefore, these bearings have to be different from normal needle bearings. Here extremely strong dimensioned and hardened steel cages are required.

Different bearings from the left:
Original INA KZK 16x22x12; Stage6 No. S6-802002/XL which is 10x14x15; original INA KBK 10x14x13; China HT bearing of my 48cc engine.
Here is the piston pin bearings with more details:
This must be avoided at all costs here. The needle must not look out from the connecting rod:
This failure occurs because the piston bosses are to far from each other. One notices that the piston was designed in the time of bronze bushings. This design should have been changed for needle bearings. But they didn't.
The most important step to get the rod in the center of the piston: The crankshaft must be mounted at its center. It must not move during operation. My had about 1,5mm axial play. I suggest 0.3 mm axial play which should be set with the fitting hardened washers betweeen each crank and its 6202. When that is done, the play between the bosses should be reduced to about 0,5mm at each side.
My goal is a long lasting HT Engine - Multipaul

The bearing rohmell suggested doesn't fit in the boy go fast 48cc. 
Found that out the hard way, ended up making the bearing into an oval, thankfully not damaging the connecting rod. Back to the OEM bearing i suppose...

OK where are the dealers for the recommended bearings needed for replacement on the existing outside ball bearing china motors. What are the specs. again for the complete bearing package.
Your response is much appreciated since I have one bearing that has completely went South. The cage broke.
Thanks,
Budz

I ordered the wrist pin bearing/K-10x14x15 cage needle bearing from Bearings Direct because I'm putting a 70cc Hi Hi compression head on my PK 68.5/80cc engine which I ported the cylinder as well as some added high proformance parts, so I figured that I would also need a better bearing then what came with the engine to handle the load and increased HP, so I went to Bearings Direct and ordered the part $6.99 +$6.75 to ship (38 miles north of their wharehouse in Cali. a week later NO! bearing, NO! e-mail, NO! phone call, Nothing! so I called and they said they would ship the same day I called 6-19-12 on 6-28-12 I called again and they said they didn't carry that bearing (even though it was listed in their catalog and in stock) and that the part was on PO. from Japan and wouldn't get here until mid-july, the guy at the parts ordering desk was an @$$ hole with an attitude,like I was the problem and not them, so my advice is not to order from Bearings Direct if you want to avoid a head ache.
Another reason is even though the engine did come with a caged wrist pin needle bearing the bearing's were so loose that they would come out of the outer side of the cage.
Be careful who you order from and make a phone call first to see if the vender(s) have your part before you go on line and order it, the advice on this thread is very useful and my expierence has nothing to do with advice either given or suggested by the "BEARING DR." I'm speeking from my own expierence.
Tylinol is also pretty expensive so avoid a head ache, aviod these guys dont be a Phil Schiffly

The bearings for the crank shaft and transmission shaft are #6202.
Various vendors will have different suffixes on that number depending on the quality rating and seal configuration.
IE: SKF bearing # 6202-2RSH.
Do keep in mind that sealed bearings need to have the seals that face inwards, towards the center line of the engine, removed to allow proper lubrication. Keep the outside facing seals intact to prevent junk from entering the bearings.

There are more if you wish to do a search for them.
I just tried the link and I don't have a problem with the page coming up. Sent you a PM.
Thanks

so let me get this straight....
the china doll uses 4 6202 bearings, 2 w/ both sides sealed, and 2 w/ only 1 side sealed.
plus the wrist pin bearing.
is that right, and is that all the bearings involved??
sorry bout bringing up an old post......

You got it, all four bearings have the same dementions. The unshielded part of the two bearings face the crank. But what i dont understand is which top end bearing is best for a ht.
Actually no. The remaining bearing is located on the lower end of the piston rod, at the crankshaft.
so there is a total of 6 bearings,
(2) 6202 both sides sealed
(2) 6202 one side sealed (or no seals and get external seals - 15X35X7 & 14.8X27X3.8)
(1) top piston rod (wrist pin) - 10X14X13
(1) bottom piston rod - 10x14x15
right??
EDIT; this would be for the 66ht....

That's odd...I thought it was the other way around for the crank-shaft bearing shields...open TOAWARDS the crank to allow them to bathe in pre-mix. My BGF 66cc came like that, and I replaced the bearings as such. I've a couple of thousand miles on 'em like that; no probs.
That the seals should be AWAY from the crank? I'm getting the idea that the experts here are suggesting that the open-side of the bearings should face outwards. Would you geniuses set me straight?
