From what I'm seeing, they don't put much grease in...anything.

considering my OEM didn't make it 250 miles I am hoping to have better luck with aftermarket cheaper ones lol.

So what rear wheel bearing did you get to fit ? I  have the same problem with my right rear wheel bearing on my 2017 z800 with 295 miles

I found this on ebay when i searched DA3063..  Anyone know anything about these bearings? https://www.ebay.com/itm/PFI-Wheel-Bearing-Compatible-With-Toyota-90369-30043-90369-30044-30x63x42mm/282234944175?epid=812688662&hash=item41b6837aaf:g:bZgAAOSwT5xZQmlq
nope, the problem is you take a shot in the dark because the pictures aren't accurate. If they aren't sealed they will wear very fast

Fully sealed.

This is the front bearing and not the back. Am i correct. The rear is the DAC3063.  right??  I cant find a DAC3063 rear bearing anywhere but the dealer and he is out..

yes that precision link is for the rears. I was giving you the numbers off the original bearing.

this thread is a bit confusing because we were all trying to figure out what was right. First I ordered from the first link
https://www.thebigbearingstore.com/dac3055w-atv-double-radial-ball-bearing-30x55x32/

Those are the FRONTS (well I am assuming because they were to small for the rear, I haven't actually put them on the front yet)

The precision ones listed here are the rears

So I ordered precision bearings as noted above, I also ordered a drive works bearing online from advanced auto. Both of the bearings are sealed, the drive works bearing looks like the seal is better. I think I am going to install one on each side and then we will find out maybe next year which one is better! Driver works bearing was $30 precision was $25. Advanced and auto zone could both get 513022 but in national auto brake which is not a sealed bearing FYI
So 1 year later and about 150 miles later both of these bearings have play.   While removing the axle i broke,  the inner race was stuck to the old axle dumping ball bearings everywhere... found some others off Ebay i am going to try.  https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fp%2F112721474%3Fiid%3D152807782910

The world of wheel bearings is a fickle one. In the Kawasaki world people were always looking for a quality wheel bearing because the OEs were over 60 bucks each now and all the aftermarket replacements were less then 30 and 20 in most cases. But..the OEs were lasting many thousands of miles and most of the aftermarkets ever made it a thousand..most less then 500. One thing I did notice was that no one just took theirs down to the bearing house and matched them up with a National/Timken bearing. I have a National Bearing supply here as well as one other bearing house I will be visiting when..or if the time comes.

REDRIDER- Good luck with the new bearings. Let us know how they work out. Have to be better then the OEs :)
