I think its
48.5 X 26 X 15
&
50 X 30 X 14.5

If its the same as a CB77 then its also the same as the CB350, 450, 750 and many other bikes.

Oh, is that for the races? I meant just the ball bearings. Is it advisable to replace both the ball bearings and the races? I am just missing ball bearings, the races appear to be fine. Part numbers? Where can I buy them?

Thanks!

Sorry, yes that is for the races.

1/4" I believe on the balls.

Thanks Hahnda!

Wait, are you sure they're not metric?

Yep, not metric.

How many do you need? I have quite a few used ones laying around. Are you missing a couple or are you looking to replace them with new? You can probably pick them up at a local hardware store also.

1/4 inch is correct. I get mine from the local bicycle shop, thay have them by the hundreds, or a hardware store may have them as well. Clean the races and check for pitting or grooving. If they're nice and smooth you can re-use them no problem!
