Does anyone know if these bearings would be identical to the ones for the Honda clone?
Also, there appears to be several special tools needed to remove the bearings...they appear to be press fitted so the tools look like several variations of mauls. Has anyone removed their front wheel bearings without the special tools and successfully reassembled them?

Yeah, I took out both front and rear bearings (I replaced them with high end ceramic versions) I just used a brass drift pin and mallet, carefully tapping around them from the other side until they just dropped out. (put back both sets the same way)
