i was curious to know what everyone else is getting on there bikes for miles before replacing the rear wheel bearings,i got 2400 miles and mine were done.

04,500

 

Thats all I got out of my first set. The replacement bearings must be better because I have just over 5000miles now and they are still in good shape......

 

i ride in mud constantly. wheelies daily.
im on my 2nd rear set, and i have a front left that needs to be replaced.

 

450 on my 800. mostly mud

 

about 600 miles lots of mud and water.

 

How do you know when they go bad? My 400 has been squeaking from the rear end for a while now, I was thinking it was the brakes.

 

shake your wheels now and then, kinda like checking for ball joint wear on a car/truck. youll know when thye are bad. ive killed a hub cause one completely came apart, my buddys 800 got the axle too.
i think his died at about 2-300 miles. lots of mud and wheelies tho.

 

well, my 400 has about 2000 miles of mostly mud, so I'll definetly take a look at them.

 

i have about 2500 miles on mine so far(original set), and i think i can get another 500 miles before they need to be relplaced. they don't seem to have any slop at all.

 

How much slop is to much? Both rear wheels can be moved up and down and I am getting a clicking or clanking noise when turning.
