    I saw black plastic ball bearings in my garage where my i park my fzr. I dont know if those bearings actually came from my bike. These bearings r abt 5/32" in diameter. Did anyone have an experience encountering these ball bearings?

    plastic bearings? I would assume that they wouldn't be off your bike. I couldn't see plastic able to withstand the heat / pressures generated at the places that use bearings on the bike.

    But I may be wrong...

    I've taken an FZR apart from top to bottom. There is no such thing as plastic bearings on it. Like Boz said, the plastic wouldn't be able to withstand the heat and forces that bearings are subject to.

    If your garage is like mine, garage junk maybe?
