If you have a pair of needle nose pliers, use the part where you cut the wire at ( the round open part, not the blade :() pinch the bearing and wiggle it should come off fairly eazy, also let me know how you like the kon kave in it, best of luck  
Ps if you dont have needle nose just use regular pliers and be carefull not to ruin your bearing

Actaully, the stock bearing came pre-cleaned, which may be why you dont like it. Just break in the bearing.

The bearing that came with the yoyo is meant to be attached to the yoyo, because if you open the yoyo, the bearing wont fall out to lose it.  
To remove the bearing, wrap the bearing in something soft, then jently tug the bearing with plyers.

samad is right. you just need to clean and lube the kk. i have a legacy and a dm with the kk. i liked the legacy bearing better b/c it slept longer, but then i cleaned the kk and it works just as well.
