No, you need to stay in more and replace the wheel bearings ;) . If they've not been done in the last 3-4k miles they'll need sorting. Unlike some other bikes, the wheels must come off to check these.

But the bearings on my 04 are still good and its done 5 winters on the original orange seal bearings,although i did the bearings on the 08 in a year due to blasting them to bits with a jet wash(i think)but i didnt replace them with OEM made in china shit. So far my 04 has been 100% reliable only just replaced the licence plate bulb holder due to salt corrosion and for the past 2 years this bike only gets used in the winter and when it rains although this year saw the gold finish flaking off the wheels,i do plan to sort it out this year cos it deserves it its still a superb motorcycle.Im a bit slow with computer tech im still trying to get all 3 in the gallery with titles.
