XB Steering Head Bearings

[Mito]

Hey Everyone, down here in NZ, some Buell bits are getting a bit hard to get or wickedly expensive. Genuine replacement steering head bearings are eyewatering. I did some Googling and came up with these for my XB12r and Ulyssess. They are actually a common trailer bearing and come with a rubber seal. Just need to fit a 2mm thick spacer top and bottom so the seal clears the undersides of the yokes and they drop straight in. Hope this helps someone.
