Thanks but Just one small problem. I'm from South Africa so I need the numbers to get it from my local bearing dealer.

www.ronayers.com lists the actual Suzuki part numbers.

I have bought and replaced many bearings on bikes over the years and never got them from a dealer and paid the daft prices. What about trying to set up a database and including it on the website listing all the reference numbers and sizes of the bearings and seals used on the GS such as wheels, swingarm, headrace gearbox etc etc. Then when someone does need to obtain a replacement they can go to a bearing factor and quote the Ref no, rather than get ripped of by Suzuki.
