Howdy yesterday i picked up a 250R frame with a 2001 suzuki gs500 engine mounted with 6 speed tranny, i finally got a chance to ride it and noticed the front end was fighting me to keep it straight first i thought it was the torque of a 500cc motorcycle engine then on a straight i looked down and noticed the front wheel wobbling side to side its not terrible but obvious either age or weight of the new power plant has put a strain on the front wheel what would it take to rebuild it new bushings,bearings, i am willing to dump the money into the bike i just need a clue on what parts to order Thank you

Front wheel bearing kit has everything you need. Hopefully the hub is okay.

Just remember guys that bearings really do vary in quality.

I do like the All Balls, they are not a bad bearing but I'm hestant to get the "china" bearings which is possibly what JC Whitney has, and they won't come with the seals that you have to change too.

Just trying to save you a bit of aggravation.......
