sealed wheel bearings

I would like to change the wheel bearings on my 1998 Heritage to some sealed wheel bearings
After looking everywhere I can think, of I can not find any. The places that once sold them do not stock them anymore. Has anyone changed their bearings to the sealed type? It seems that the motor company would make some to retrofit harleys that were produced before they went to sealed wheel bearings.
Thanks for any help.

As long as you repack the bearings when you get a new tire, the stock bearings will outlast the sealed ones by a lot. Don't know where to get sealed ones for the old bikes.

Take a bearing to a place that sells bearings.They may be able to match them with sealed bearings.
