Bearing change from 3/4 " to 1 inch

Bearing change from 3/4 " to 1 inch
I own a 2007 sportster custom with the rear wheel that takes a 1 inch bearing and axle. I found a really cheap rear wheel from a 2001 sportster however it has a 3/4 inch bearing and axle. Is it possible to just change the bearings only without any other work. They are both cast wheels. Was wondering if Harley would carry a bearing that would do the job. Thanks in advance as I couldn't find any threads on it.

Wheels from that year range will take 3/4", 1" and also 25mm bearings. I have a Softail rear wheel on my Glide which I changed from 3/4" to 1", also a later SG front wheel which I have changed from 25mm to 1". In both cases I used a set of Harley bearings which come with the correct internal spacer etc. Check the H-D website and the Shop tab, where you should find details of the bearing kits you need.
