Check your front wheel bearings for grease marks?

I consider myself very lucky this video was shot on Friday with my wife on the back, I shutter when I think what could have happened. Pictures was taken with a pocket camera that I carry when riding, also used to shoot this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZquLqA3w7mM

thanks for the heads up Eric. I have heard what sounds like a bearing noise in the front end of mine sometimes in corners. It also seems like my calipers aren't releasing all the way as I can here and feel my brakes rub when I cleaned my white walls on the lift. May have to stop by the dealer, I only have about 3500 miles on mine.
Please don't flame me for the miles as there would be more if it was up to me.

I can hear what sounds like the pads to be rubbing a little on mine too, I was told it was normal

I was told it was normal for the brakes but when they replaced my bearings they did the brakes also. All under warranty. $10 for their beer fund and down the road.

My front bearing went out at 15k. Dealer caught it during tire change. Now I know to be sure and check thoroughly at each tire change.

My son`s 2007 Street Guide rear went at 17,000 miles ,I though that was early also. My 2002 FLHTC only has 18,000 miles and so far no problem with mine. I have a bad back so I don`t get to ran that much,plus my job has me working most weekends when everyone else I know is riding. Save Riding ,Mike
