Hi Guys,
Just a quick question, as far as I can tell I am missing the rear wheel bearing sleeve. I was putting on a new chain and sprocket set (front and back) and when I was re-assembling via the Haynes manual I noticed that I do not have the rear bearing sleeve that sits on top of the needle rollers.
I did not loose this part as everything was kept together when I was taking the wheel apart. This is the 1st time I had to take the back wheel apart since I bought the bike 2 yrs ago.
My question is this....
Is it safe to ride the bike without the rear bearing sleeve? Coz to my mind I have been since I got the bike 2 yrs ago and I just had to replace the sprocket carrier bearing from normal wear and tear. And that was doing 27,000klm in just under the 2 yrs.
Any ideas?
