2008 BMW F800 ST- FORT WORTH, TX
THE REAR WHEEL BEARINGS FAILED, AND PRODUCED EXCESSIVE REAR WHEEL WOBBLE. I DETECTED THE PROBLEM AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER - NORTH TX HOUSE OF MOTORCYCLES IN HURST TX. THEY SAID THE BEARINGS, SHAFT, BRAKE PADS AND OTHER ASSOCIATED PARTS NEED REPLACED FOR A COST OF USD1,832. HAD THE MECHANISM BEEN DESIGNED PROPERLY, IT WOULD NOT HAVE FAILED. I RIDE THE BIKE CAREFULLY WITH NO EXCESSIVE SPEED OR STUNTS, SO THE FAILURE SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED. I COULD HAVE HAD A REALLY BAD ACCIDENT DUE TO THE FAILURE. *TR
