Post 2002 Honda foreman question
My Foremans right front sounded like a sack of marbles getting ground up. Today I pulled the wheel off and then the hub and found my bearings were loose and fell out when I pulled the hub off. Got the race knocked out and ready to replace bearings,race and seals. For those that have done this is there a aftermarket replacement or should I replace with good ol Honda parts. I plan to pick up the parts tomorrow when I wake up and get her back together unless someone tells me to buy elsewhere. Any other should do or would do's ?

I only use genuine honda parts due to the quality. Most of the aftermarkets are cheap junk. But if you go that route,I would personally try to find a sealed bearing. I get most my stuff from discounthondaparts.com

Honda is definitely proud of their $ hit but I would never buy any other brand atv. And yeah, Honda parts ain't cheep but it's only a bearing so it's still a cheep fix. Riding in creeks will cause that in a hurry.
