Have you checked your wheel bearings recently?
They should be replaced every few years at best or more often if you ride in the wet as we do here on the West Coast. Check your side play occasionally to detect potential failures early enough.
If you are looking for the ultimate reliability before a long trip or are simply pushing your bike through hell and finding the OEM quality bearing does not last long enough, this kit is for you!
Our high-performance kit uses much better-quality bearings than OEM or aftermarket kits, such as All Balls or Moose Racing.
We use high-precision bearings from the SKF (same as high-quality manufacturers like Nachi, FAG, KOYO, etc.) with advanced seal design providing constant smooth operation and long service life.
- Rings and balls made of select materials have superbly controlled accuracies, such as roundness, contour, surface finish, and hardness, to provide quieter operation, reduced vibration levels, and long life.
- Rivet-type pressed steel cages for strength and durability.
- High-performance grease for long life and low noise.
Combining a unique lip design and seal groove provides a labyrinth and steady seal contact. Unlike the OEM, they are sealed on both sides. The kit also contains a new dust seal to rebuild and start 100% fresh fully.

Dust seal options explained:
- If you run the original speedometer with the gearbox assembly on the hub, choose "OEM Speedo gearbox." Only one seal is needed.
- If you run our speedo gearbox delete spacer, choose "BP speedo delete spacer." Two seals are needed.
Make sure you choose the correct option in the drop-down menu so we can supply you with one or two dust seals.
