Welcome to the site. If your looking for a stock back wheel get a 1997 thru 2004 they have 3 bearings.
2 on the drive/sprocket side.

Welcome  to the site. This place is awesome!!!  If you're considering a new carb I would look into Lectron.  They use a metering rod instead of jets.  I put one on my bike and am very happy with it.

+1. I am very happy with mine as well. Once you get it tuned, your throttle response is awesome.
