Hi AT riders !

That was my experience. The upper edge of the tapered roller bearings is 
extremly small, hard to apply force to it without damaging it. Also, the 
outer ring refused "to go in". 
I used then original honda ones. Both rings where mounted in less than 1 
minute.
What tools did you use to drive the outer rings in ? Hammer ?  Boltdriver ? 
"Gewindestange" ?  
Maybe I will try again, when my honda LK's will fail another time :-)))
best regards, Martin
