I love reading Matt Parkhouse's column but every time I read one I start fretting abut maintenance issues. My 1983 R100 RS has about 64,000 miles on it; I've owned it since 1985 when it had about 4000 miles on it. Over the years, I've asked two dealers (one in Chicago and one in St Louis) about service on the wheel bearings. Both said the bearings weren't serviceable. I'm wondering if I should have asked them if the bearings should be replaced periodically. I don't see anything in the owner's manual about wheel bearings. So I thought I would see what the Forum might yield on the subject.
