Z1b 900 Front Bearing replacements

Has anybody replaced the open bearings with sealed ones? (All Balls brand) I just got the old ones out, and it only cost me 2 screwdrivers, but when putting the new ones in, the kit comes with two "inner" seals. When I tore the old ones off, there was only an outer seal on the one side, doesn't seem to fit anywhere else, except maybe on the inner colett? I'm pretty sure these have never been messed with, so I'm wondering if the inner seals are for another model that perhaps the same kit fits? Any advice would be great, thanks!

There might be one in the speedometer gear if it's any thing like my 1000
