Rear Wheel Bearings.

I have a 2017 RTVX1100C with 4000m (6300kms). Recently rotated the tires and found a small bit of play in the rear wheel bearings. Is this normal or with the mileage should I plan on replacing these soon. Also, are they complete hub assemblies or pressed in style bearings?
Thanks
Jim

Not sure how much play is normal, sorry. Here's a parts diagram with part numbers just in case.

It looks to be about the same design as the older 1100"s. The rear axle has a nut that holds the rear hub (the wheel bolts onto the hub) in place. If I remember right they increased the torque value for the nut because it was allowing the hub to move and it would strip the splines in the hub and then you have to replace it. If it is the least amount loose you can get some back and forth play. You can so a search and find what the torque is. I would check it first, it's easier than replacing the bearing.

My X900 looks the same, It had a little play when new, and about the same now, it has around 2000hrs, I think, when I check the cattle this AM I will check miles & hours..

BTW the Kubota part # is 08241-05208,,, is that the same as 5208 bearing??
