When you have the back wheel out for the tyre change it would be a good thing to replace the cheap and nasty wheel bearings fitted as standard with some better quality items such as SKF Explorer 6205-2RSH. It's an easy job to tap the old ones out with a hammer and a drift and then tap the new ones in.




Looks like these bearings are not that expensive are they really that much better? How many bearings do we need to replace?

There are two bearings in the rear hub. The original bearings are sealed in lubricant type but the seals fail and allow the grease to escape, then the bearing fails. The SKF ones don't seem to suffer the same problem, better seals.

I am starting to gather my winter projects. I have Fabian's lightweight steel sprocket coming my way so that is high on the list. I will also install new tires all the way around and the Walbro fuel pump.

You moved the turn indicators and added a reflector on the front suspension?
