Race Series® Steering Stem Bearing Kit for Honda CR and CRF | SSR-H-397

Upgrade your motorcycle’s front-end handling and durability with Factory Links Race Series® Steering Stem Bearing Kits for Honda CR125R and CR250R, as well as CRF 250R and 450R models, engineered for aggressive off-road riding and long-term reliability.

Designed with a multi-layer sealed bearing system, each kit features a race-set, controlled stack height that eliminates spacers, shims, and installation guesswork. A rubber-coated metal seal with a molded sealing lip provides exceptional resistance to pressure washing, impacts, and harsh trail conditions.

The lower sealing lip interfaces directly with the frame, blocking water, mud, and debris at the source, while a high-interference press-fit design ensures the seal remains securely locked in place. Dual angular-contact sealing lips adapt to preload changes and chassis flex, maintaining consistent protection throughout the steering range.

No special press tools required. Just longer bearing life, improved grease retention, smooth steering feel, and an OEM-quality finish built to perform in real-world off-road conditions.

Ride harder. Wrench less.
