So before I bought the new bearings for the swingarm and for the neck I went online and looked for the same bearings and found a slew of different prices. After a bit of looking I found these at Auto Zone same Timken bearings and races even comes with two seals and grease for get this $21.00 for a pair of each. Auto Zone part number BT100 . The seals are too thick but whatever still cheaper. Figured I would share the info. | ||

Yes and Yes. Same thing for both. I am looking for cheaper seals. These are genuine Timken as come stock. | ||

Thanks for the info I'm about to replace both te neck and swingarm bearings myself. So the seals that come with them are too thick to use? Thanks, Spencer | ||

Yes they are too thick about double. I haven't checked them out completely just saw they were thick. I got new ones coming with the new wheel bearings so I wasn't going to mess with them. But these bearings are half price so I got those instead. | ||

if you will contact a local hardware store you can probably find them cheaper than that Now its been about a year or so, but I feel I got the swingarm bearings for about 14 bucks just using the bearing part#, called and they had them in stock Bough bearings and races for next to nothing. | ||

My understanding is even Timken under 4" diameter are made in China for the last several years. I had the guy at the bearing shop dig around at the back of the bin, and he found perhaps his last set of made in USA. | ||

I found the timkin seals a while ago, but could not find appropriate seals.... | ||

American Sport Bike sells the seals. |
