    Wheel bearing advice needed on my 80gs1000e



    I am putting on new tires soon so I figured I would put in fresh bearings. I was wondering which ones needed to be changes as standard maintenance. #s 2 and 3 are the wheel bearings right? What about # 13? Any suggestions? Anything else worth swapping out while I'm at it?

    Looking at the BikeBandit site I would say you need all three, There are two on the drive side for additional support Take them out and go to your local bearing supply store and they should be able to match them up for 1/2 the price of Suzuki

      Ditto. If you are going to do them, do all of them.

        Take the bearing to a bearing house like Motion Industries or Applied Industrial Technologies and they will cost a third of what they cost from Bike Bandit. You will be able to get all three from the bearing house. I've even gotten my swingarm bearings from them.

          Good advice all around. Thank you for the posts, I will check locally and replace all bearings regardless of where I finally wind up getting them. 8)

            Hi

            #13... I belive it is a bearing for the sprocket.

              Would you recommend changing it? I am putting in new front and rear sprockets as well.

                Those bearings cost next to nothing.

                Ha en god dag.
