Can anyone recommend a decent rear hub bearing for a GP 200, cant get hold of an M.B. one and was warned off Casa ones.

RIV from Scootopia,
CBF (Italy) is also very good but quite hard to find.

Not heard of JBL ones, personally I'd rather use an original RIV one or even SIL as never had a problem with them unlike say an MB one

Hi thanks, gone for a Riv one in the end, heard a lot of problems with the Casa ones. Think the JBL ones are standard indian fit, thats whats in mine and was very tight and the centre where the layshaft goes through was very worn so gearbox was very sloppy.
