bearing seals

[denisblackvtr]

Good evening everyone, i'm wondering if anyone knows the best and least expensive place to get wheel bearing dust seal's as my dealer want's £20+ for a set of front and rear . Cheers in advance. Den

get them out without damaging them and note down the numbers on them
it;ll say like 54.48.8 or something
thats the inside diameter, outside diameter & thickness.

take it down to your local bsl, wyko or other bearing distributor & they should be able to fix you up off the shelf for £3 - 7 a seal as they are bog standard metric seals.

theres always david silvers & wemoto but you will find the postage is same as the cost of a seal from your local place.

Cheers for that Benny but i should have mentioned that were no seal's in the wheels when i stripped them down. So i'm guessing the moron who changed them before i got the bike did'nt bother putting any seals in at all. Took the wheels off to have them powder coated and discovered the missing seals. Den

maybe someone who has a set of wheels off - tony perhaps, could have a close look at the seals & post up the numbers for us all.... and maybe the bearing sizes too?
c class bearings form bsl are cheap as chips compared to the identical thing in a honda bag

failing that you could get the verniers out & measure the diameter of the hole it sits in, diameter of the spindle & depth of the space it sits in, bobs yer mam.

Even if you just buy then from D/S there £4.10 with the P&P it will be only £12ish so still a saving of £8
