Don't by the OEM bearings. Go to your local supplier and get SKF or similar. You just need the engraved numbers or just measurements will do.

Wemoto ones will be fine but i'm pretty sure you don't the rubber coated large washer/dust seal that goes on the bottom yoke with them, you'll have to get that from robinsons or your local suzuki dealer..

Unless you have some kind of puller to get the old bearing off the bottom yoke you'll damage the seal getting it off.

I got mine from a Koyo bearing stockist in Saltash. Industrial component supplies, they do mail order. I have a friend who swears by the Bearing Boys. I would have thought Wemoto's should be fine. I bought taper bearings for my GSX250 donkeys years ago from MPS( they became part of M and P) and they are still in( at least 10 years of use) but sadly bikes not fit to be ridden ,I am first and fourth owner though. Hope this helps
