    Hello, 1987 XJ900. With the bike on the main stand U can feel a TiNY bit of sideways movement in the back wheel. Is this normal play between the bearing(s) inner race and the axle or should I be concerned about future bearing failure? Mileage of rear wheel bearings unknown because second hand wheel fitted some time ago… Thanks
