Author Message   Dnveloman Posted on Sunday, May 03, 2009 - 08:58 pm:        07 XB12X. Rear tire Sh$% the bed today. Since I'm taking off the rear... anyone have the part number for the new and improved bearings?... I'd like to order ..   Gamdh Posted on Sunday, May 03, 2009 - 09:01 pm:        E0005.02A8B   Dnveloman Posted on Sunday, May 03, 2009 - 09:21 pm:        Thanks!!!   Okc99 Posted on Sunday, May 03, 2009 - 09:33 pm:        So wait a second. If I had the dealer install new bearings and didn't specific which ones, did I get the OEM faulty ones? Or have the OEMs improved? I'm asking because I just paid $230 to have the rears replaced for preventative maint.   Gamdh Posted on Sunday, May 03, 2009 - 09:34 pm:        The new ones have black Seals (manufactured by KBC) (Message edited by gamdh on May 03, 2009)   Idaho_buelly Posted on Sunday, May 03, 2009 - 10:08 pm:        I have an 09 X build date of Sept.08..It has the red seals?...Wow!..Thought by buying the 09 I was clear of this issue..   Hughlysses Posted on Monday, May 04, 2009 - 06:19 am:        Sept. 08 was right around the time the new bearings came out. You probably got one of the last bikes with the old bearings. Keep in mind that some bikes with the old type bearings have run 30k+ miles without problems. I'd keep an eye on them and change them at the next tire change.   Rkc00 Posted on Monday, May 04, 2009 - 07:36 am:        My 09 Sept Build has the red seals also.

What was the price per bearing? The new ones are significantly cheaper, I want to say half price. Old bearings were something like $40 each, new ones were less than 20 IIRC.   Gamdh Posted on Monday, May 04, 2009 - 06:54 pm:        I'm thinking I got a set of the new rear bearings for about $30 + shipping... with the BadWeb discount.   Jphish Posted on Monday, May 04, 2009 - 07:16 pm:        Where did you get them Gamdh ?   Gamdh Posted on Monday, May 04, 2009 - 07:55 pm:        One of our sponsors of course ....
