Hi all.... I'm currently En-route to Nordkapp on my 2002 1150 GS. I've reached Kittila in Finland but for the past 100 miles my passenger and I have noticed some vibration from the rear wheel.
Initially I thought it may have been tyre related but I've checked and the tyre is fine.
I had the crown bearing and seal replaced about 1500 miles ago. There is no movement in the wheel and no oil leaks of any kind.
With the bike on the centre stand, when you spin the wheel there is some noticeable grinding from what appears to be the drive shaft.
So do I try to continue as planned and see if it gets worse? Or do I call Carole Nash breakdown and see what they suggest - repair or return the bike to UK if that's financially viable.
Any advice would be appreciated.
