Moto social is a bit overwhelming!

How was the turnout? I got caught up cleaning out my garage and lost track of time!

Thanks Brian, now you tell me this! 😂😂😂 I actually did see that somewhere but totally forgot! I was caught up in the moment! Will do that for the rim bearings. Any other tips?

Why not?

August 22nd. Anyone going?

Can't post pics on here anyways! Always says oops something went wrong!

Well switching the sprocket carrier bearings did not change anything, the same sound is present at the exact same time when the bike is cooling down. I am beginning to believe that this sound is just something that bikes do. It could possibly be parts cooling off at different rates causing a...

So... wheel bearings are not as fun as I thought! I actually haven't got to the wheel bearings yet but the sprocket carrier had me saying a few bad words! You need multiple tools to do this job and other items like blocks of wood. Removal wasn't to bad I used a socket upside down. When the...

Well, it appears the suspect bearing is the unsealed sprocket carrier bearing. I took the wheel off again to start the job and fingered all the bearings. The wheel bearings are super smooth, the sprocket carrier bearing is rough. I believe the rims and bearings are low mileage because it appears...

Which one did you buy? There are a bunch on there?

I just simply entered the year, make and model and whammo the bearings arrived at my door!

I fixed another issue that I had concerns about. I had one of those fancy aluminum keyless (useless) race gas caps and found that there was alot of pressure in the tank after a ride. The cap would get stuck on tight and when opened (unscrewed) would spray out a mist of gas. Probably not the best...

That was my plan. I watched a video of a dude in Europe who uses all kinds of random tools to do the work. He reinstalled using the better of the 2 removed bearings and I think also a socket that matched the bearing size. If I fubar it really bad I have extra rims! But that is not the plan of...

The ones that I ordered I simply put in the bike info. I checked pricing on 2 different sites and they had the same product code and pricing so hopefully they are correct. I will give an update once I receive them and attempt the install! I ordered from fortnine but also checked revco.

Ya, I need to do that! I should really be posting stuff there. I am also going to be installing a 360 soon so that will be interesting! I have a insta account with a fair amount of followers, can I link it to youtube?

I can't post pics or video on here.

Is a clunk the same as a knocking noise when you rotate the wheel? Maybe clunk is not the best description. I am going to change the bearings anyways, just because. But in my opinion there does not seem to be anything else wrong. The rear wheel today makes no abnormal sound. The bike was not...

So I think I fixed the push rod leak for the time being. But should probably change the seal at some point. As for the wheel knocking noise, I adjusted everything and added more chain slack. The sound seemed to have disappeared. No play that I can tell in any of the rear end parts. So I went for...
