I asked this over on the blast forum but the last post over there was Jan 21st.

My bro's blast needs front and rear wheel bearings. The HD dealer gets $22 a piece for fronts and will have to special order with a week turn around.

Any source for a less expensive bearing out there?

get the bearing number off the bearings themselves and you can search many different bearing suppliers.

assuming that 6204 is correct, i assume it is, theses are fairly cheap;

the list; type in 6204 and it will show all the varieties

these MIGHT be the correct fronts, i did some quick research in the KV; i would verify the actual bearing p/n as stamped on the old bearings before buying anything. IMO.

I just went to a local bearing/industrial supply place for mine, they even had ceramics in stock, those were pricey though... Not to take away from Al but I saved a ton of time since I didn't have to wait for shipping - and money.

Be careful, under a number there are sub types that describe more than what seal is in the bearings, 5.00$ bearings = made in china .
Al's are either made in USA or in J-pan
and are the correct type for the app.

your wheels your money your butt.
