[QUOTE="Uenjoymyself, post: 1381717, member: 90627"] I don't know. The "pro's" were going to use a torch to heat the casing and charge me an exorbitant amount of $ to do the build, not to mention more than a week to finish the job. I found some valuable how to's and info as to why a torch is a bad idea here One thing I may have done differently is read the service manual first. While there is no recommended procedure regarding removal and installation of the bearings, it is suggested to use water or coolant as a lubricant on the oil seal and the ceramic/rubber half of the shaft seal. I learned this looking for torque specs pre installation of the water pump. I rode 200+ miles today with no issues, so apparently o ring lube works just as well and was also recommended by the "pro's" Cheer's, Uenjoy [/QUOTE]
