7Up I think the main thing is detection. Noticing the the change before it self destructs. In this case the actuator arm at the transmission had to move a substantial distance and basically do nothing.
For most of us I doubt there is a need to to just replace it unless its primary use is that of a city bike idling in traffic on a daily basis.
[MENTION=15369]foxbass[/MENTION] what is your primary use? Can you snap a close up of the failed bearing?
+1 above, especially if the clutch is used OFTEN as Foxbass was (downtown London, always clutching, stop and go HEAVY traffic).
Agreed, if the covers off check it. If there's no releasing issues, really no reason to take it apart unless your conditions are similar.
