Default Is this the right bearing to replace when changing cams?

Hi, is this the right bearing to change when changing cams on an 09/10 96" motor? I keep hearing about Torrrington bearings but couldn't find them.

JIMS Inner Cam bearing $9.99 Replaces OEM 9215 (times 2 of course)

Thanks for any advice.

What year bike do you have?

'99-'06 88" motors takes a Torrington B148 inner cam bearing
'07-'10 96" motors takes a Torrington B168 inner cam bearing

You can get them at any local bearing house for about $5-$6 each.

Thanks Steve, I have a 2010 96" but I'm not in the US....... I looked for them on the J&P website but they only had the JIMS bearings - are they good as the Torrington?

And do I need a cam spacer kit?

Thanks.

Just got a set from a bearing supply house. Torrington B168. Bearing is stamped torrington, but the box says Timken. I guess they bought the company. Not expensive either, like 14 bucks CAD for two.
