According to Ronnie's Harley OEM online parts finder the 07 and 03 both use 9208 bearings, if that helps. You might want to verify at Ronnie's just in case I selected the wrong bike.

I checked with Motion Industries today, the GE25ET-2RS from Aurora sells for less than $24 a piece. Aurora currently doesn't have any in stock and isn't going to manufacture any until the middle of December. Motion told me that it would probably be available in the middle of January which is OK with me. That should be about the time I'll want them.

The best bearing for this application is the Aurora bearing that I specified. It is durable, high precision, and has seals on it. As to fitment years, I will look that up in my parts manual later today and post back here the factory part number. If your bike uses the same part number then it will fit yours too! If not, Aurora makes a host of different sizes and I'm sure you could source the correct one.

A plain bearing is simply one that has no ***** or rollers. A bronze bushing is also a plain bearing.
