Rear wheel bearing

Find out the numbers of the bearings and nip down the local bearing services and purchase a new set.
It's that easy, cheaper too.:thumb2

ok how do i get the numbers?

There will be a bearing code written on the side of the bearing, if in doubt, knock one out and take it with you to the bearing factors, they will know where to look...

I've just done the front bearings on my XC, and dont think i got much change out of £30 for bearings from a bmw dealer. Guess you might cut that in half from by going to a specialist..

Probably worth doing the sprocket carrier bearings as well while you're there.

and if your sprocket bearing is shot, you'll need new cush rubbers as well :blast
 
I got my sproket carrier bearings through a mate, from MCL in Aldridge (wallsall) they cost me £8.

The cush drives were about £12 and the seal was about £1.50 both from motorworks.

Hope this helps as a guide for prices.

Ask someone who has done the job already, or remove them and take a look on them for the number, or measure them and I can take a look in a catalogue for you.
In fact, if your in the sh!t with it, whip it down here and I do the job for you......... I'm not cheap though.:beer:

Ginger, it is about time you learnt to use the fiche's on the net. Check http://www.realoem.com The description gives the size of the bearing and seals. you can then use the search option on simplybearings site to find and cost the bearings. They also do seals.

You will need circlip pliers and a heat gun to do the rear wheel's bearings. Also if you havent already done so get yourself the F650gs repair manual that is in pdf form and can be had at the f650 forum sites.

Best of luck
