If you ride your Suzuki DR650 for some time or have looked into it before going on a long trip, you might have learned that a potential weak point in the DR transmission is the single bearing in the sprocket carrier.
If you have the hub's bearings well greased, they can last a long time, but you will typically see the sprocket carrier bearing fail first.
The stock mechanical design cut corners on durability using a single bearing mounted with an offset. Combined with soft cush drive rubber dampers, this leads to the typical premature failure of the Sprocket Carrier Bearing suffering from side loads.
To get the ultimate reliability and long-lasting bearings in your rear wheel, you can now replace the whole sprocket carrier with an improved model from Warp9.
It uses 2 bearings to cancel the destructive twisting load wearing out the bearing and cush drive rubber dampers. This high-quality replacement is CNC machined from an aluminum billet, receiving a hard-anodization treatment in silver or black.
Note: This part used the same size as the stock bearing. When the time comes to replace it, you can get two bearings instead of one.
Warp9 products are MADE in the USA.
