    i need to change my wheel bearings in my TE 450. And i was having a look at SKF web site and noticed that there are oil loaded solid ball roller bearings which are sealed for life. maintenance free and are able to take high shock loadings. Has anyone used these already for wheel bearings if so can you let me know how they worked out.

    Me too. I'd love to have a set of those for my bike. I love the new SKF fork and wheel seals, and these bearings look like they'd be really great for wheels, also.

    This is what ive found out so far the bearings are for example 63005 2RS/W64. I havent seen there wheel spacers so ill just use my stock ones. Ill also order SKF Seals for the front of the hubs. The other thing that came to mind is that they go small enough to replace the chain roller bearings 8x22x7 is 608 2RS/W64.
