persoanlly i thought it was NTN , dont matter anyway .
i buy and use bearings daily in work , the list goes on on manufactors ... bearing life is down to application and conditions as we all know .
i would have SKF over any japanese make , but thats personal choice .
just make sure the speed(clearance) is correct for mains .

My Wiseco crank kit came with a japanese made bearing. dont remember the manufacturer though. I think they were the same as the ones I pulled out, but I wont swear to it.
so far I have 40 ish hours on my wiseco bottom end. Not a single issue yet.

Bearing makers often supply OEM's with bearing not available to the public.
OEM is the only way to go.

Ever hear of these guys?

I've gone thru this alot of times, about how my stock car guys have been trying to run them in titanium hubs, sponsored by them, and they fk up 10x more often than an ntn bearing will

Wow!!!!!!!!!
Just a simple question. I know for sure there are better than stock crank bearings for Banshee's. ( Maxload, TZ ). I broke the OEM yamaha bearings and then went to the Maxload and have not had another problem.
I thought just maybe there were better one for the 500, but I guess not. So I will order new ones from Honda.
Thanks
