    I got told that the KOYO were the same type used by some factories, how true that is i don't know but there are only so many places producing bearings it may not be far from the truth

    Can't paste the link but search these on eBay

    HONDA CBR1000 RR8/9/A FIREBLADE 2008-2010 KOYO LEFT & RIGHT REAR WHEEL BEARINGS*

    Take the part number off the bearing and go to a local bearing manufacturer. Will be cheap as chips and you get them off the shelf ;-)

    Infact its the same front bearings from 929's to rr10's

    6005, you want fully sealed and I would possibly use a taper roller replacement instead.
