Wheel bearings at 46k miles

Wheel bearings at 46k miles
Had my bike at the dealer the other day for a new front tire and brake pads. On a whim, I asked him to check the front wheel bearings. I didn't suspect anything, but it seemed like a good idea. Sure enough, the report came back that the grease had hardened and they needed to be replaced. Just $100, but now I'm gonna run the bike back up there and have them check the back bearings as well.
Just thought I'd mention, since this is a check that is not on the maintenance schedule for my '08 Road Glide. Anybody else had that experience?

When I swapped to new wheels at 9000 miles the bearings were already going bad, there was a roughness to one and the side seal was shedding lube on another, I have seen reports here from 5k to 50k and some that have never lost a bearing at higher miles. No reason or rime to length of time.
