why would the bearing grt thrown off the fork by riding it? when i pull the tranny it falls out as soon as the trans is seperated.i understand that riding the clutch would make the bearing go bad but not fall off

Check the clutch fork to make sure that its not bent.

Maby the fork is worn?

or

Have you ever had the resurfaced?  If too much material was removed, maby this could cause the fork to over travel and cause the bearing to pop out?  Just a thought.

Good luck
