Replacing final drive output bearing - help please!

[Pipe & Slippers]

I've got a mate here who's on his way from Oz to the UK and the final drive output bearing on his 1150GS failed yesterday in Northen India. BMW dealers are a bit thin on the ground here so we'll have to repair it ourselves.

Does anyone have any hints or tips about removing the bearing and refitting a new one? Do we just heat the casing up and knock the thing out?

Dunno but here's the BMW pages I can find on the final drive. Good luck.

Many thanks Gecko, much appreciated
