Popular Post Mathieu Tech Moto Posted July 22, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2023 Good morning, yesterday i changed my Sherman-S Left wheel bearing and oh boy that was a job, about 6h of labor time only for one side, will do the right bearing another day, think twice before starting the job ! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDINPHX Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Thanks for this! I think one of my bearings is starting to go. I can hear a weird noise that wasn’t there until I ride in the rain this past week, sounds like a hum; Hutu it’s not tire related And. I’m getting a squeaking noise after about 25-30 Kms. Likely time to change them out. Which means I need to source some additional bolts/parts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scubadragonsan Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Damn, Mathieu Tech you are good! You must be a mechanic. Do you already have an EUC repair shop? If not, should start one. The world needs an expert EUC mechanic. Young enough, start an EUC business? I wish I can do what you can do. Hard work, thanks for your video!

Hard work, thanks for your video! Thank you for you kind words, i'm not expert mecanic as it's my hobby, i've been working at a motorcycle repair shop for a year, it was fun at the begining but after a few months i did not considered mecanic as a hobby anymore, i don't work there anymore because it was far from home I occasionnaly accept job on EUC's and that pays pretty well, but again i live a little far in the country roads so getting customers would be hard, i consider moving in city in the next 5 years so that could be a nice side job 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry late reply for some reason i don't receive notifications, You will need a set of Allen Keys, screw drivers and a lot of patience, ideally a bearing puller and of course new bearings !

on one Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Excellent video @Mathieu Tech Moto, may I ask, "Why did the bearings fail?" "Would it be advisable to replace the entire motor hub assembly than to replace the bearings, given that your time is likely worth $125/hr ?"

It all seems to be one piece, it may be an option but i would fear that the stock bearing would fail again after 1000 km, they usually fail because the lack of grease and water ingress Edited October 22, 2023 by Mathieu Tech Moto Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
