Thank you, You are welcome.

so i have a 2016 FJR, that front wheel bearing is probably pretty much the same process you did on this concourse, good to know...thanks

[@SCWMoto]

Hi rich i have a video specifically for the FJR for wheel removal and bearing replacement. Its for my 08 but bearing processes are pretty close

[@djkeelan3869]

Would you replace the tire due to the uneven wear on the tires that I see

[@SCWMoto]

The tires in the video were not that bad. The bike tracked well and had no tire induced front end wobble. Wear wise about 50% we left them on the bike for that riding season and changed them out for the following season.

17:19 - 17:28 Why is the oil seal set deeper at first, and after 10 seconds it is already on par with the landing! ??
17:19 - 17:28 Почему сначала сальник ставится глубже, а через 10 секунд уже на одном уровне с посадкой! ??

[@SCWMoto]

It just the way the scene was cut. 17:21, is the installed seal depth bottomed out on the bearing

[@andriimuraveinikov3893]

@@SCWMoto I did the same! Thank you for the video!

What the code of that bearing sir

Define catastrophic please. I’ve seen C14’s that have NEVER had wheel bearings replaced with over 100K miles on them. A bit overkill imo.
