We put a rock through one of our 8010's yesterday and are renting a 9120 while it is repaired. When I went to change the chopper speed(after running it for 2 hrs) I found the bearing at the speed selector collar so hot I couldn't touch it! I went over to our 06 8010 and it was warm but nothing like the 9120. I went over to a neighbor with 4 9120's and his are all quite hot too. Dealer was out this afternoon and replaced bearings on both sides of chopper and the small bearings on the through shaft as well as the 2 bearings in the shifter collar but still running very hot. I don't want a second insurance claim in one week!! How hot are others running? Do You think it will cool down with time?
