One rear bearing was done after only 24k km on my NC. Thanks again Adrian for your excellent vids, took me an hour to replace the bearings. Did it the first time and was probably a bit too careful, but finally did the job thanks to your excellent explanations :)

Put new bearings in the freezer overnight, they drift into place much easier when fitting. .

Good video didnt see anything to dramatic that you did wrongly and you saved yourself a heap of money well done .

I don't even have an NC750, i have a Hornet '03 but it's a pleasure to watch your videos. I'm planning to buy an NC soon.

Ao tirar o rolamento, ao invés de bater, aquece a volta dele com um soprador térmico até 120°, e ele sai muito mais fácil Na hora de colocar no lugar, aquece a 120°, e coloca o rolamento no congelador por 3 minutos Isso facilita muito o processo

I was checking my wheel bearing when replacing my worn tyres. It was spinning smoothly in the wheel hub, but I decided to just change since it's been 2 sets of tyre change since the last bearing replacement. After removing the bearing I shake it and it feels like the ball bearings moving about. I took a new one and shake it and they do not have the balls moving around sound. Physical inspection on the old bearing seems fine. All my bearings 2 front and 3 rear all have this balls moving about sound when I shaked them although they were spinning smoothly in the wheel hub

Did mine fairly quick after seeing this. Brake side took a beating because water had gotten in somehow and seized the bearing to the wheel. But all good and my rear is smooth as butter now. Many thanks!

Hey very usefull stuff!! been watching many of your videos already. It will really help if you can do one on how to remove the left panels (not just the top for the air filter, also really good video). I'm planning on installing an alarm so can use some help there. many thanks for all you have shared.

I think it would be better if you use the old bearings to put on top of the new bearings to tap them in. more evenly and less chance of damaging the new one.

Buen video. Muy útil. Gracias

Thank you very much!) Really very helpful video😇

are all three bearing the same part number?

thanks so much. very clearly explained

Just something else you might look into and that is a peice of brass bar as a drift i inherited my old mans its just a piece of brass bar that i use to remove wheel bearings on trailers and cars even use it on the head stem bearings on an fj1100 when i owned it anyway just something to ponder .

Thx mate, well explained!

Vert good vidéo again thx

Well done!

Nice Video Mate

Not a single time was a Greaseolygist consulted. And if I recall, bearings are supposed to be removed with a torque wrench and installed with an impact wrench set to high-torque. The seals on the bearings are supposed to be pried with a dial gauge and the bearings should have been mounted in a lathe and rotated while the grease was installed to ensure a consistent application.

Are you talking about the bearings behind the sprocket drive ? If so this is normal. Only a grease seal on each exterior side of the wheel. Besides the bearings each have their own grease seal to keep their grease in and gunk out.

was it just stander purpose grease or high heat, thank you.

Actually bearings of such size costs no big money. Usually I change them with new ones when disassembling any mechanism been in longterm use.

I noticed you took out the seal on the brake rotor side, but after installation you did not put a new seal back in. You only put a seal on the sprocket side. But maybe you just forgot to show it on the video :)

Thanks, I am currently only researching what bike is best for me, and the Nc750x has been looking good up to now. I can see that you are a careful rider and wouldn't push your bike to its limits, but a wheel bearing wearing so quickly isn't a good sign. it isn't what I would expect from a Honda.

Fair enough, but still surprised at that problem arising at that mileage. I have just googled that very problem on the NC750 and its a common fault, so far I have read that some owners had rear wheel bearings done twice, one had them done under warranty at 13k miles (20k kms) then again at 23k miles (37k kms). It seems wheel bearings don't last as long as the chain. Maybe cheap at $16, but the ease of maintenance on the NC750 seems to have become less easier.

Don't like the way you put the new bearings in. Find the correct socket that fits the "outer rim" of the bearing. Never tap on the race cover, or inner race.

@AfricaTwin-Stuff

6 жыл бұрын

bigwheelsturning - yes you are correct of course. Notice I said NOT to follow my method!

Just got mine done. It wasn't that bad, the main sprockets came out fairly quick. Just a pain to hook onto the first bearing in the wheel but the second is super easy. The hub bearing requires flat out beating to get out. All are fairly easy to get back in if you put the rim between something that's level so you get it straightened out and not go in crooked.
