Rear wheel bearing failure

Howdy-
Been a while for me, saw this post, and thought I'd "share".
Monday the right bearing blew out on my '09 scg coming into work....got REAL for a moment there.
Two lanes in a baricaded construction zone...no where to go- had to ride it out.

I had to "pry" the end of the spacer tube open to get the shaft out, but with a little clean-up, everything else is good.
I had to replace the spacer, cost for me was $13.57 through the local HD house. Picked up 6006 bearings (two) for $18.00 each.
Doesn't sound like much, till you factor in the "real cost" of gas in my truck till the spacer comes in- bump another $160.00, and there is NO price you can put on my "agony" not being on that bike....

The rear bearings for all 2009 and earlier xb's and 1125's are the same dual bearing system 2010 and on are a three bearing system.

is there a different part number wheel for the three bearing system?
