Are these a generic bearing for all BST wheels or s1000rr specific ?

Thanks

I believe it is BST specific for s1000rr wheels, but better check with Steve from Brocks Performance and he will help you with the correct information.

Have mailed Dave at WWB for price shipped to UK , seems a top bloke and responds quicker than company over here that BST recommended. Before I go ahead , are they worth the money and hassle of changing. Not bothered in doing so and wasting money if not really of benefit.

Thanks

from my understanding they are really easy to change out. Also if youre getting BST rims i dont see why you wouldnt just drop a little extra on the ceramic bearings...less friction, wont corode, last wayyyy longer, lighter...

oh and also...if you havent bought BST's yet but are thinking about it...motomummy has them with WWB ceramic bearings for about 3880 a set...if you buy it all together. I havent found cheaper than that yet...if anyone has let me know cause im about to pull the trigger on a set within the next 2 weeks

Already have the BSTs and Ceramic Bearings are an afterthought, got them used but as new so did not have Option of ceramic bearings at the time. Still looking into pros and cons of changing to them to be honest
