GS1100G rear bearings

[Guest]

Manual says "Make sure to identify each bearing, the left side (iron plate sealed type ) and right side (rubber sealed type)"

What if i have both rubber sealed type? Old ones are very bad condition and i have only rubber bearings. And weeeeekend is coming....

What bearings are you referring to? Those in the rear wheel?

Assuming you are talking about the rear wheel bearings, Suzuki used a rubber seal on the side of the bearing exposed to outside to protect against water entry, but on the inside they typically used a shield instead of a seal. Aftermarket bearings typically use a seal on both sides of the bearing which is fine.

Oh my bad, but yes rear wheel bearing. I bought these aftermarket bearings from NSK (rear RS63032 and front RS63022) and then i see that manual text which say use that metallic style bearing.
