slowly getting my falco back for on the road.

dropped the rear wheel and whilst stripping it down i noticed LOTS of little springs!! new bearings time then.

can anyone confirm that's it's 2 bearings for each wheel and are they difficult too fit yourself????

cheers guys

Yup 2 sets of bearings for each wheel plus two sets for the sprocket carrier if needed.

Never changed a set so not sure how awkward it is.

All good with you?

lo mate, hope all is well your end of the world. is life better over there????

bit topsy turvy here, came off my honeymoon in feb too find i had no job back contract slots back out in the middle east where i was working!!!
started a crap little job but am on the lookout but it's bad here jobwise.

cheers for the info. think i'll get all the bearings changed too be on the safe side. then sort out my rear elecs and it should be all go from there.

All seemed rosy 'till I lost my job too, just before xmas. Contracting at the mo short term but still looking.

know the feeling... earning now in 1 week what i was earning for a day and a half!!!!! ouch!!!! need too sell my tuono and keep the falco.

applying for jobs everywhere

you still got the falco??? hope so

big ???

got the seals of the wheels and the front ones are the correct size according to the apriliayorkshire site and genuineparts site.

but the rears are different.

i have in my hand 38x52x7 and 38x55x7 taken of the rear wheel.

the sizes stated are 30x52x7 and 38x52x7

what is going on here!!!! which is right

from my limited knowledge on these thingies the dims are IDxODxTH (Inside Diameter x Outside diameter x thinkness)

Since the spindle has to fit through all the seals I'd expect the ID to be the same for all the seals. So I suspect a typo or a poor copy making the 8 look like a 0.

Just guessing tho'

i checked the size of the confusing one with my tuono and it's the same 38 55 7 and not what stated in the parts diagrams.
