Re: Rxv wheel shaking
check the wheel bearing for play remove wheel then remove center cap on hub remove cotter pin then castle nut the hub should come off now check the bearing for wear or missing rollers if all checks out good then reinstall hub and bearing and castle nut tighten castle nut down to set the bearing then back off 1/8 to 1/4 turn reinstall cotter pin

Re: Rxv wheel shaking
hey jd before removing castle nut grab the hub and try moving side to side in and out if there is movement then that's a sure sign of bearing being bad if so you can get replacement bearing from local parts store most likely a Timken I did mine a couple years ago about 12.00 a piece remember to pack with grease before reinstalling even the new bearings need to be packed

Re: Rxv wheel shaking
1 wheel shaking-can be out of round or cold flat spotted...
2 wheels shaking on front-possible rack problem... check tie rod ends/loose bolts holding things in place ect... this is in the front end,right? |

Re: Rxv wheel shaking
RXV uses sealed ball bearings, no grease, no preload then back off 1/4 turn. They are not taper bearings like used on cars. They dont even use taper bearings on most autos anymore. I think the problem is likely tire/rim related. Jack up front, spin shaking wheel, look for wobble. Switch from one side to other to verify tire/rim problem.
