ive got 11000 miles on mine and the rear wheel bearing has collapsed.
keep an eye on them!! if it wobbles or doesnt turn smoothly. replace it.
luckily i was about 100meters away from my dealer when it happened!!

is this the bearing in the swing arm thingy (the bit you have to remove to get the rear wheel off) or a bearing actually in the casings???

My front end is as wobbly as fook, but had it checked over a little more than 2 weeks ago and they said fine  |

YOU can talk,with THAT avatar....
Tease....I nearly had a spill in France last year,front tyre hit a drain cover in the wet..6 inch slide to the right.. For AGES after that,I was convinced that the front end was somehow off...it might be all in your mind...
