    Ceramic Wheel bearings?

    What's up Everybody?

    Is there anyone out there running Ceramic Wheel bearings on your gs1100e? If so can you please let me know where I can buy a set for the front and rear.

    Thanks, Supavert

    Just put standards in and be done with it. I'd hate a wheel bearing to seize on you at high speed.


    PS: the sky is up.

      Let the engineers who designed 'em, run them on THEIR bikes. Buy quality conventional bearings and be predictable.

        What are the advantages of ceramics on a wheel bearing? They shouldn't be noticeably more efficient. The only application I know of for ceramics is in machine tool spindles with very high RPM. We would have to be doing Mach 2 or something to turn our wheels that fast.
