check it...front bearings, f4i

got an 02 im puttin together for a lot bike. the bearings in the front wheel are falling out (no idea how this could have happend) and i was wondering if anyone had this problem.

i can get the bearings cheap and have a press but i dont know yet if the wheel will fit in the press or if they need pressed in.

anyone have any info on this on should i just buy a front wheel. found one already but if i can save the money i will.

The front wheel spacer valves are bad, and the wheel is junk.

Re: check it...front bearings, f4i

basicly... the place the bearings goes into the front wheel are rounded out. either A: you can have it machined to a larger Diameter and order special bearings... or b: buy a new front wheel..

Thats a very rare issue with wheels.. i highly suggest having some one go over that bike to make sure nothting else will cause u to crash and die.
