[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1464290, member: 19880"] Perhaps, but I have only replaced one set of (front) wheel bearings in almost 300,000 miles (450,000 km) on two Gen II FJRs. I check them for rough/notchy feeling every time I have a wheel off. We aren't that hard on bearings so, for the cost, I would choose a higher end quality steel bearing (SKF, Timkin, NTN or FAG). Never had to replace a steering head bearing on any motorcycle but would probably go with a tapered steel bearing when the time comes. I would avoid some of the cheap generic bearings from China...
