FAQs

What motorcycle models is this kit compatible with?

This kit is specifically designed for the Sherco 2.5 250 I 2008 model, fitting both front and rear wheels.

Does the kit come pre-greased?

Yes, the bearings are pre-packed with heavy-duty premium marine grease, with a 60% fill for harsh conditions.

How do the seals protect the bearings?

The nitrile butadiene rubber double-lip oil seals are designed to prevent contaminants like water, dirt, and mud from entering the bearing assembly.

Can I use these bearings for road riding?

These bearings are specifically designed for off-road use. While they may function on roads, their enhanced features are optimized for challenging off-road environments.

How often should I replace these wheel bearings?

Replacement intervals depend on riding conditions. For heavy off-road use, inspect regularly and replace when signs of wear, noise, or contamination are present. Consult your motorcycle's service manual for general recommendations.

What makes these bearings resistant to rust and corrosion?

The bearings utilize specialized grease with advanced thickeners and offer superior rust and corrosion protection, combined with robust seals and a v-groove inner race design to minimize water intrusion.

Troubleshooting

Wheel feels rough or stiff after installation

Ensure the bearings were pressed in straight and fully seated. Check for any debris trapped during installation. Verify that the correct bearings were used for the application.

Premature wear or noise

Inspect seals for damage or signs of contamination. Confirm that the bike's axle nut is not overtightened, which can damage bearings. While designed for water resistance, extreme or prolonged submersion in abrasive mud could still impact longevity.

Bearing does not fit hub

Double-check that you have the correct part number (KWK-C-001) and that it matches the specifications for the Sherco 2.5 250 I 2008 model's front and rear wheels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This kit is specifically designed for the Sherco 2.5 250 I 2008 model, fitting both the front and rear wheels. Always verify compatibility with your specific motorcycle model and year before installation.

Setup: Installation involves removing the old wheel bearings and pressing in the new ones. Ensure the wheel hub and bearing seats are clean. Proper tools, such as a bearing press or suitable sockets, are required for installation. Refer to your motorcycle's service manual for detailed step-by-step instructions.

Care: While these bearings are designed for harsh conditions, regular inspection is recommended. After significant exposure to water or mud, check for any signs of contamination or damage. No additional greasing is typically required due to the high initial fill, but periodic checks can confirm seal integrity. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at the seals.
