Well, Savage; I ass-u-MEd that I had sealed wheel bearings…….I do NOT, they are “shielded” bearings. But, with that being said, my XP1000 TRE has in excess of 20,000 miles with the original bearings. I was replacing the axles, so just because I have it apart anyway, replaced the bearings. All that got me to thinking, I have put almost 50,000 miles on these machines in the 11 years living here in AZ and no bearing failures. And to top that off, the group I ride with have never had a wheel bearing failure. So with that, I think I am just going to not worry about the bearings until I have an actual problem! Of course if I was driving in deep mud and water a lot it might be a different story. Another great video, Savage!

Thanks Sensei! It's amazing the amount of maintenance the mud and water causes on these machines. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
