09 apex RTX inside idler wheels

[wileya]

went out for a ride came home and noticed that my inside idler wheels are starting to have the rubber peel off of them. started to take off myself when i noticed that they are on a shaft that my 2 shocks attack to. so i am thinking this is going to be a big project. so my question is... is this a big pain in the but project or is this really easy. and has yamaha got a fix out for these wheels as i have seen on here that tonnes of guys have had problems with this. thanks

replaced mine 3 times now... suspension has to come out... and the front shock stripped.... those wheels dont last... i put the yammi spoked aftermarket wheels on... i wanted to go to the 5.35" doo wheels, but these take 6005 bearings and i cant find aftermarket wheel in a 5.35" diameter with this bearing#... because of the shafts and setup need to have 6005 bearings...

Its not a hard job... just time consuming...

good luck!
