I know this has been an issue with the 1800's, but I have just removed my rear tire on my 2004 1300C and discovered that the left bearing is shot. I have only 11500 miles on the bike, and the bearing is extremely tight and very rough.
The right bearing is OK, but it will be getting replaced.
I had not noticed anything to make me suspect that anything was wrong, although when I removed the axle, I did notice that there was some water/moisture on it. No rust, but there was water.
Just a heads up for other riders.
