New wheel bearings?
I am getting my 2007 Deuce out of the corner of my garage and cleaning her up. I want to replace the wheel bearings.
It has the HD9267 in it. Can anyone help with cross-reference numbers? I would love Timken orSKF but am open to any advice.
Thanks

I just use the HD bearings when I replace mine...
However, a lot of people who use aftermarket wheel bearings use All ***** Racing bearings. They're not perfect, but have many more good reviews than bad ones...

All ***** used to be my go-to for bearings. Their stuff is China crap now, and it showed. They fit & work but were certainly lower-end quality. At least the last couple sets I have purchased from them, and will not buy their stiff anymore.

I had read a couple of posts like this, but they were certainly far fewer than those that really liked All ***** bearings.... I have never used All ***** Bearings, so went by reviews I had read when mentioning their name...
I remember one post not too long ago, where a forum member had to repack a couple of new All ***** bearings, because they were delivered with hardly any grease.
It seems the current trend with All ***** bearings is showing a reduction in quality.....

My experience is opposite. They are all I use in my bikes where available.

The last set I used was for my Trials bike and, to be honest - they were total crappy China rough bearings. They fit - but they were nowhere near even the OEM quality.
I also used a set on one of my bike's steering stem - they were ok. The bottom bearing did not even fit. They were China crap and not even the better China crap.
Years ago when I was doing some bearing work, All ***** were quality USA bearings and the customer support was absolutely the best. I was having an issue with a conversion set of ***** to Rollers on one of my sportbikes that I needed to be done by Sunday. Dang if they did not help me on a Saturday phone call to help get it figured out.
The last time I tried to talk with them about going to all-china-***** they did not even call back. Nope - done with that noise. That's it for me. If I am going to spend money on bearings it's not going to be on the lower end China crap that All-crap-***** is selling. Just my 2 cents.

I'm still running the original bearings in my '02 Dyna (purchased at 22,000 miles just this past fall.)
(My' 00 RoadGlide had the bearings replaced at 100,000 miles and it turned out that they were still good to use.)
'00 to '07 were the bulletproof bearings, '08 and later are the garbage bearings. You don't have to replace those bearings..
