WHEEL BEARINGS - THE DOPE

[1olbull]

Front & Rear Wheel Bearings for the Rocket (both Roadster and Touring).
Many of us have had to replace these, including myself (3 rear wheel sets so far in 53K miles).
I have finally measured out the bearings. In an attempt to help ameliorate the apparent confusion in researching & ordering these wheel bearings, I have prepared two charts:

I hope this helps . . .

I assume "Ta" is better than "tish & pish"?

Ta is a simple way of saying Thank You, I was starting to look at front and rear wheel bearings for when I powder coat my wheels so a big ta from me also.

As stated by our Exiled Scot - It is a form of saying thanks - mainly in the northern UK - A word most likely of Viking heritage.

These bearings cross over to the R3T as well.

Ta - indeed!

Sent out a number of inquiries to see if we can find a quality set without involving any mystery garbage out of China.

Will follow up with answers, hopefully we can find a one stop shop for good quality full front and rear set.

So then, the Touring has the same part numbers even though the wheels are different size?
