Hi Jerry. Before you throw the baby out with the bath water...my rear bearing went out as well (very common problem as the bearings were Chinese-made and there may have been a recall on them). I took the tire off in about 5 minutes, took it to Yamaha dealer (H-D charges waaaayyy too much!) and they pressed new bearings in for me in about 10 minutes while I waited. And the whole deal only cost me $20, which included the bearings and their labor. Great deal! |

no see my problem is that the old bearing made the bearing slot bigger i have new bearings already but drive side has a bit too much play so i will have to take to a machine shop and machine out the hub and find a bigger bearing to fit axle or buy new wheel which no biggie but BOSS lady(wife)says got new bike time to sell old one |

Yes your best bet is to buy another wheel, they pop up all the time on ebay cheap. |
