Just a quick one. Quick background.
Bikes now well out of warranty on its second motor (new one fitted after 18k miles after crank bearings failed).
This motor has now done about 10k and its started making a rubbing (like shhh shhhh) noise that is at a faster rate than the crank rotation speed but no other issues so far.
Suppose my questions are, what is this, does it indicate impending doom for the drive unit and I've seen the "E8000 Motor Service" thread and think it's within my ability to replace some or all of the bearings would that fix it?
