Anyone have the numbers for the bearings for these wheels? just had the wheels powder coated and would like new bearings throughout.

Why don't you take the old ones down to your local bearing shop and let the boys sort you out? Once you've done that you can post the specs, LOL.

I keep the bike at a garage away from home, and I was trying to save myself a return trip!
Lazy I guess, but I like to stick to my mantra:
"Hard work pays off in the long run, laziness pays off now!!"
Will post specs when known.

Why not just phone Nelly @ cornerspeed or JHP for the right parts?

Otto,
Just checked my records and the bearings are SKF 6203-2RS (2 rubber sheilded), though on my spare wheel the mark is SKF 62203-2RS, they will be available from any bearing supplier (Yellow Pages) as they are a standard type and will be on the shelf, just check with those differences.
If you are ordering them, it would be worth purchasing a clutch release bearing which is SKF 6201-2RS, these are quite cheap but worth replacing when next checking the clutch plates.

That's why I was after the numbers as it is a 5 minute journey to my local bearing shop where they will undoubtedly be several quid cheaper than a Duke dealer. I do try to outsource bits where appropriate!
Thanks again.

I would take it that the two different bearing no.s you have are for front and rear as they are different sizes? These are radial self-aligning bearings - do you know why they are required to be self-aligning?
I'm also replacing all the linkage bearings as well so the relevant numbers will be posted in due course.
