Falando em rolamentos...


"Wheel bearing maintenance is of vital importance, since poorly serviced bearings can bring your bike to a crawl, or even worse, they have the potential to completely lock-up a wheel and cause injury." [...]



"The sealed double-row ball bearing (on the right) is what Harley uses for wheel bearings at the present time. It replaced the tapered roller bearing used on the left side of the frame and needs no service during its life span of approximately 100,000 miles. It is also double-sealed to resist pressure washing and keep out dirt."

informação para ser confirmada, mas as softail até 2002 usavam os mesmos rolamentos que o usavam os antigos opala. Resta saber se ainda servem nas mais novas.
Para o rolamento da caixa de direção, o indicado seria o rolamento do fusca.
