front wheel bearings. i think

wr250f95 · 07-07-2007, 10:12 AM

hey my front wheel wobbles, its hard to keep the bars from shaking when going at high speeds, when its just sitting in the shop, i can move the front wheel back and forth on its axle ever so slightly, spokes are good, im pretty sure the rim is true, i have the axle pinchers tightened as tight as i can get them, im assuming its the wheel bearings, they are after all 6 years old. How hard is it to change them out? can i get the seal aftermarket? thanks
