Here's a little mystery for you GasGas scholars: I needed to change the rear wheel bearings in my '07 300 for the 1st time (haven't been able to ride it much til lately). I read this thread 3 times & studied the photos of the washer at length.

I got out this morning before church & banged out the old bearings & surprise: No washer! I went ahead & changed the bearings & they seem fine, except that if I go all the way to 60 ft. Lbs. On my torque wrench, the wheel binds, but it will go to about 59 lbs., so that may be just the tolerances in the wrench.

So is my bike missing a part it should have, or did they make a change at the factory on the fly?
