Factory Scrap Repair Job?
You are looking inside the brake drum. It appears as though Suzuki (or whoever made the hubs) scrapped this one by getting the bearing bore oversize. As a repair, they installed 6 pins and re-bored the installed pins to fit the bearing. Anyway, that's how it looks to me. How about you?
I was born with nothing and still have most of it left.

Hi Coyote,
it seems to me, that these are no bolts, but ejector marks from manufacturing. When you press the bearing out of the bore, you will not find any bolts.

Dirk

Re: Factory Scrap Repair Job?
Those marks are made by staking the bearing in place.
