This video may be 10 years old but it’s the best start to finish one I can find on KZfaq. Thanks!

I really like how you mentioned not over-packing the bearing between the cage and seal. Heated grease has to have a place to sling too and pick it back up as needed. However it looks like you still ended up packing a little too much lol. Some videos shows guys just packing as much as they can but this is a mistake as it will churn the grease and create friction and resistance. Kind of the opposite of why we were lubing the bearings in the first place.

Carb cleaner might work better than Brake cleaner. The most important thing to note is if the cleaner is safe for rubber. Because, some solvents will attack and degrade the rubber seals. Read the label carefully for material compatibility before using any product on your bearings and seals.

Surprisingly professional tutorial. Kudos to you!

thanks man im going to try this before i replace the bearings

Lincoln Lubricant Dispensers sells a small needle that goes on the end of a grease gun which will get down into tight areas like between the balls and races. You just place the needle where you want the grease to go and pump the grease gun handle.

Thank you!

Soak the bearing/hub over night in solvent. Lightly tap hub/bearing with metal tool handle for solvent penetration. Wipe off the excess solvent. Place hub in your freezer overnight. Take the hub out and carefully use a torch (fueled flame) and evenly heat the hub around the bearing - not too much. Using a dull Flat-Blade Screwdriver, and a Sledge-Hammer, hammer the bearing out from the opposite side, evenly, being careful not to scratch the hub surface. Also, search Park Tool bearing romoval.

awesome video thanks a ton!

Thanks for the video!

Good Video Thanks!

This wheel is from an '07 Scorpa SY250 which is a French made, Yamaha powered, trials bike. I also own an '05 YZ250 and an '06 WR250F. As you can see I bleed blue.

Wow. That hurts. Amazing what they can get for bearings overseas. Bummer, least you are in good shape now.

thanks! for this!!

Thanks i ordered a bearing kit but its gonna take like 2 weeks to come and i wanna ride so imma try this for now

:-) You didn't replace the bearings instead because of why??

What about the inside of the bearing? I am sure that still have the ruber seal that you took off on the outside. Having said that i suppose here will be brake cleaner left inside the bearing you cleaned since the other side of the bearing is sealed with the rubber ring.... Just something to think about...

is there a way to do this on a bearing that does not have the rubber seal?

Do you know a good way of removing rusted out bearings from a hub? Just bought a bike and the bearings are all rusted into the hub itself

nice video bud!

Thx dude!

Can u do more videos on the best way to wash u engine i.e take it out by parts n wash or leave it in x

Does a motul motorcycle chain cleaner work? The one compatible with o-rings 🤔 Great video BTW!

I had to replace these bearings after all. I think they were $120 through an industrial supplier - French made motorcycle.

one more tip. your brake disc is extremely sensitive for grease and once contaminated it is very dificult to be clean again.

Does carb cleaner work instead of break cleaner?

What bearing grease do you use?

Wat other bikes do u have
