MZ/MuZ Riders

hi there i an looking for new front wheel bearings for my mz sm 125 03 reg can anyone tell me where to get them or have a part number so i can try and match them at my local bearing shop

cheers wilson

i looked a long time and found a german web site it said 6004 2rs
if yours is sm or sx may be different
the oem part in my rt125 lasted about 12,000 miles and the noise was so bad i changed them

see if the bearing shop can get them in a real good grade and brand
falling off hurts

Hi

I don`t think you can complain at 12,000 miles from wheel bearings!

I would change them every year on my Pampera,but that was trail riding/green laning,AND it was easy enough to change them-about 10 minutes to do the front using a kettle of boiling water,a mallet,and a large socket

We havn`t got a bearing factors by us now,i just get them off ebay,i`m not convinced about`high grade`being worth the extra for wheel bearings,it`s usually lack of lubrication/contamination that kills them

Cheers

i guess i got spoiled riding BMW in the 1970's there wheel bearings lasted almost
forever if you missed all the big pot holes

Hi Dave, you're usually exactly right on, but I'm afraid the MZ 125 SM doesn't take 6004's (the 2004 certainly doesn't anyway, I don't think they changed the spindle at any stage), they're wrong (ID is too big for starters), correct measurements are ID 15mm, OD 42mm, Depth 13mm on both sides. I make that 6302's

I usually find this company is the cheapest in the UK and will be ordering forthwith, I'll try and remember to update this post to confirm if this is correct.

Edit: I can confirm that the 6302's are the correct size.
