Just wondering, have you pulled the tank and dumped it out to make sure that there is no dirt, debris, or other stuff, in the bottom of the tank? Eddie

front and rear; Criggleslist special Guy bought a slightly used 2010 that came with an extra pair of stockers. He wanted a more street tire! Didn't quite understand that since the stockers do fine on street though the rears wear out fast. I grabbed em at that price. They were still wrapped in original packing. I brought the rear wheel/tire to MC/Tire in Sepulveda, CA. They charged me $20 despite my taking the old tire with me and my telling them that I would static balance myself at home. I still have the original 2005 wheel bearings with 38K on them. I cleaned out the rear wheel bearings from the sides that I could get to the best I could with a rag and WD40. Then forced in waterproof grease. The old bearings seemed fine. How long do rear wheel bearings last if you take care of them? J#3
