Aight,
Just got a call from my stealership giving me the damage estimate on my busa.
I'm looking at a new front wheel, bearings and seals and a new front tire. No damage to the forks or anything else. They want $835 total to do the repair, $547 for parts and $288 for labor. I checked Ron Ayers and they would be $495 for the parts.
My question: how hard would it be to change out the front wheel for a new (or used) one? I have no idea how to do the bearings, and obviously I'd have to have a shop mount and balance the new tire....but I'm not afraid of taking it on myself either provided its a reasonable task.
Anys special tools required that I would have to take into account?
Thanks,
Monty
