Don't wait to burn up the bearing on your machine.

I've got the same exact machine as you (2020) and I just hit 3500 miles. I'm thinking it's time to grease mine as well. Thanks for the vid!
Thanks for checking out the videos.
White grease is usually lithium grease and reacts with other greases, and they destroy each other. Always clean one type of grease out of something before changing to another type of grease. Can am is not stupid, if it were meant to have an entire tube of grease in each wheel bearing, they would have put it in at the factory. Curious what the owners manual says about the bearings.
Thanks for the great info!!
Thank you for the video
Just greased up one bearing lol 3 to go- again thanks for the great details 👍
No problem
How have the bearings been holding up? Imo that is way to much grease, there is a reason sealed bearings arent packed full, it causes heat, and leaves on room for expansion. 2 maybe 3 pumps after the tool is full and thats it for me, ive seen to many ober greased trailer bearings come apart, auto makers dont have provisions for greasing wheel bearings like this, but curious since its been a few years what your results have been?
Thanks for keeping up with the channel. Believe it or not, I have had no issues with the bearings and have not greased them again at all since the video with several trips since then. In fact, we just took a 15-20 mile trip through the Perco canon of New Mexico, and she ran like a champ with no bearing issues.
Have the same Geese gun lol .. is a pain in the ass...
Is that a 39mm tool on the maverick?
Fun video
The dealer's or manufactures won't dare mention the wheel bearing come ungreased.
I've got 3 of these so far an none of them will fit over the rc axles
Shock therapy recommends not greasing can am bearing’s.
Did they give a reason why?
I would agree more w ST then this method, this is way over greased. There is now no room for heat expansion and your creating more friction and less room for expansion.
I would say pump the tool full, then install in the hub maybe do 2 pumps and that's it.
Bearings don't even like being fully submerged in oil let alone grease, just look at oil bath trailer axles, you only fill them 1/3 full. Just my .02
