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!! _________________ revolution deathsquad! |

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... _________________ Scream if you wanna go faster... |
