Subject: Wheel bearings a problem?
Last year I had to change one bearing for the rear wheel, the right one at the brake disk side, at aprox. 40000km on my @ RD07. And a bit later the right one for the front wheel.
I have not had problems like this on other bikes. Is this a problem on many @?
Does anybody know if it is the same bearing who tend to fail, or is it different bearings different places?
Maybe it is imortant to change the seal outside the bearing often? Any tips?
The bearing in the front wheel probably broke because the brake disk at that side is bent a little (brake disc lock and my "Altzheimer light" is not a good combination). A new one from Honda is about DM 1000,- in Norway, so I had to straighten it out in my garage at home. It is now quit good. I hardly feel that it is bent.
