did any one else have any problems with Their Rear Bearings? mine went out and it screwed up the bearing carrier as well.i opened up the Rear end and it was a little Rusty and had no Grease what so ever ... is there any Aftermarket Bearing Carriers with Grease Fittings for a 2008 YFZ 450 SE?

Burgard sells a carrier with a grease zerk on the side. I have one and like it alot better than the stock carrier. You can plan on having to replace bearings periodically no matter which carrier you use.

I blew out the bearing on my 09 450r. I landed a triple and the pieces went flying. There was one ball left in the carrier on the left side. Needless to say, the carrier and its internals were completely shot. The axle and hub were able to be salvaged, but it did a number.

Baldwin has a greasable carrier. It fits 06-08 plus it's the same as the 450r/x carriers. That's what I am running now.
