Thank you all or your assistance & responses.I have now been able o compare the backlash & preload specs for the R150/1200C, 1100S & R1150GS.Despite certain other differences these are all the same, so it seems reasonable to believe they will also be so for the R1150 RTJust for the record, for anyone else watching,Backlash mm (in) 0.07....0.16 (0.0027...0.0063)Taper roller bearing preload mm (in) 0.05....0.1 ( 0.0020...0.0039).

Guys, another option is something like sendspace: http://www.sendspace.com/You upload the file there, other person downloads it.

Thanks guys, I rarely have the need for transferring large files so those options had kind of slipped my mind...( what's left of it anyway.)

Thanks Ron, all other accounts are also via Ihug/Vodafone, except of course my Gmail one, trevorwillmot@gmail.comThat could be worth a try. Failing that I could post you an SD card to copy to?Would just like to compare  all clearances with the GS one Andy has supplied, if they are the same then chances are the RT ones are the same. It possibly makes sense for them to be so, but sense is never a guarantee. One would think they might have done something different on the GS as its loading's and general treatment are likely to be harder?

Thanks Billy, any chance you could email me that .PDF, or maybe just the relevant section if you have a slow or limited connection?( I have enough speed & capacity  this end for it not to be  a problem. ( or maybe if you downloaded it from somewhere, do you remember the source?proftrevor@vodafone.co.nzCheers, Trevor.
