Tap out the bearing... good luck with that oneis it the same as a GS ? drain oil , remove caliper and wheel , undo bolts holding casing on , tap off casing CAREFULLY , knock out crown wheel , pry out seal , heat casing , tap out bearing . make tea , smoke fag , meanwhile new bearing in freezer , drop it into casing which is hot , knock in seal , clean crownwheel , where it goes through the seal/bearing , drop of bearing fix if needed , knock in crownwheel ,refit casing and c/wheel , tighten bolts , fill with oil .
you should be able to do this at the side of the road , it is that easy .
ps ....are you the **** in scunthorpe ?
when did the forum ban the word, c you next tuesday ?

Tap out the bearing... good luck with that one.
You should have said get the crown wheel and bearing really really hot then get every feckin wedge, extractor, lever in there that you can. Once it's moved a few mm, it's a little more approachable with a regular extractor tool - while it's still hot.
Not sure if we're talking about precisely the same thing? I mean getting the bearing off the crown wheel... I've done the job twice and getting it off was fun. No way if want to do on the road side, though I accept it must be possible, just even more of a struggle. All other aspects of the job are really straightforward.
That looks like a very neat ideaYou can use tire irons to get the bearing off.
No need to warm it up.

Can't imagine you'd do it without heat though?!

The final drive bearing seems to need replacement on Mick`s 2001 R1150R - can anyone offer some help and guidance on how it`s done please?
Thanks in advance
