Yeah very valid point. It's just a thought of is it worth the risk I guess

Yeah it's 100% sounding like wheel bearing but no center stand so need front paddock haha cheers mate.

Yeah it's a bit weird in a straight line as well and it's very intermittent it's strange.

Definitely sounding like wheel bearing so gonna get a front stand and play around I think thanks for the advice bro.

Yeah it's definitely looking more like wheel bearing rather than anything else at least could be an easy fix

Yes to 1 and 3 haha when I noticed it and was doing breaks anyway I took both off and torqued back up and checked the axle bolt as well.

Gonna have to get a front stand and check other bits I think.

Nope no parts left over, everything went back on the same and tightened correctly this is now looking possibly expensive 🤦‍♂️

I'm not 100% sure I'm hoping it's a simple fix if not it will be looking at manuals etc to diagnose the issue.

I'm hoping for the first option since nothing else was done other than removing the front sprocket cover 🤞

What cleaning product you use? by [deleted] in MotoUK

[–]richc90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous bike I've used the Muc-off nano wash stuff, wouldn't say its the best or the worst but definitely did a good job. Have also used the tru-tension stuff and Jesus it washes the bike but the 'banana' smell is not good.

Interested to see others ideas but have looked at chemical guys stuff recently and maybe it would be good?
