Right, I've taken the old bearings out of my Sk3 SV1000 and looking to buy new ones.

For the fronts, the sizes are 6205 RS and I'm going to purchase Koyo 62052RS bearings to replace them with. These are direct replacements and should be fine unless anyone disagrees?

The rear bearings are odd. The ones that came out are stamped Koyo 60/28 RDC3. I've no idea what the RDC3 bit stands for, any ideas? Google won't tell me. What would you guys replace these with? Ideally was looking at 2RS again for the seals, but not sure now.

Thanks!

C3 means extra clearance, designed to cope with running hotter.

I believe the RD is meant to be an improved seal type. You should be able to replace them with 2RSC3 ones of same sizes.
