Default Rocker 25mm Wheel Bearings

There's been a fair amount of talk about Rocker wheel bearings going bad at the wrong time and with a couple of long trips this summer I figured I'd be proactive and get them changed. Finding the correct p/n for either All ***** or Timken hasn't been easy and the bearings shown on JP's site didn't say the maker so I contacted All ***** direct. The correct All ***** p/n for the stock Rocker wheels is 25-1571.. I got them from Orange Custom Cycle in FL for $35 shipped for 2 sets (both front and back).. From what I can see, this p/n is correct for most later model HD's with the 25mm axle.

Just figured I would pass this info along for anyone else looking..

Good find, the swap is a great idea especially for a Daily driver. Iv got 9000km on mine, and still roll on the stock bearings. Ill have them swapped out when I get the rims powder coated.
