12k Patrick, but looks like hamfisted fitting rather than wear TBH
looks like it was driven in using the inner race
& over tightened as well
 
Re: wheel bearings

Unusual looking damage there Don. :frown:
Would agree, possibly poor assembly, what happened to the bits?
 
Re: wheel bearings

Steve no idea where the shrapnel is, probably a mix in the bearing & on the road.
i have bought new NTN bearings, just waiting for a new spacer to arrive.
the worrying thing is i did a 430mile day trip 2 weeks back :9399D3F58B324EE1B68
 
Re: wheel bearings

....as i had my front wheel & spanners out
i thought i would sort the front fork seals
as one had developed a leak

not too bad a job , they are upside down Showa forks on the X1.
the oil that came out had definitely had better days ..:60277EB7B04744289C0
