bearings + sprkcet nuts Q's
 
ok first question - am i right in thinking there are 2 bearings in the rear wheel? 1 in cush drive and 1 other side..?

Should i look for specific make (I'm replacing) + where from?

also, Im in need of new sprocket nuts - do they need to be special alloy nuts? where from?

Many thanks, James

It was the sprocket carrier i bearing i needed, which is ordered. Just need some advise on the sprocket nuts, all i can find are the anodised jobbies on ebay which are almost £20 for 5 small bolts !

Three bearings - two in wheel, one in cush.

I always go with decent branded bearings, SKF, Koyo are good. 'Made in Russia' are bad. ;-)

Get nuts from Suzuki.

Good morning all.


Ditto the Druid. Use a reputable make.

I use Koyo bearings. As, I have found that they tend to last longer than most other makes.

I think You will need 2 6303 bearings for the wheel, & a 6205 bearing for the cush drive. Double check these numbers, as my memery aint what it was.:D

Make sure you get bearings that have plastic/rubber seals on both sides. As, these are better at keeping water out, & grease in.
Bearing manufacturers typically use DDU or 2RS as a suffix to denote that the bearings are sealed in this way. i.e. 6303 2RS or 6205 DDU etc.


Cheers.

Well spotted! I was most likely quoting the numbers for curvy wheels:D


Cheers.

well to be fair , the OP didn`t mention what SV it was , so anyone looking for bearing numbers has got a choice here now :)
Incidentally I bought new Dust Seals as well when I got my bearings but didn`t manage to get part numbers for them but WeMoto do a whole bearing and seal kit for about £20 which is ok .
