Have just taken apart my rear hub and cleaned out all the grit and stones that collect in there. What do you guys use on the outer of the hub and the roller bearing
Grease on the bearing ? Smear of wd40 on the outer of hub?
Thanks, Sean.

Re: Rear Hub Maintenance.
Not sure how to proceed with the bearing, but do check all the needle rollers are ok and do plug the swingarm tunnel entrance or exit, with some expanding foam to stop anymore little stones getting to the hub.
When the mind is relaxed, the body will go faster!
