Manufacturers can’t control how and where you ride, so they sometimes make very conservative recommendations for maintenance intervals. (http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/howto/answers/122_1305_maintenance_intervals_and_seating_position/)I have a 2008 FJR 1300 with 24,000 miles. The owner’s manual calls for repacking the swingarm-pivot bearings and the steering-head bearings at 16,000 miles. This seems very soon to be doing this. Can the bearings at these locations fail that quickly?
