Well, not exactly True ...
On 08-later wheels, if the Bearings have lost enough of their "Interference fit" within the Hub and because of the substantial Gap/Void between the Left bearing and "Bottom" of the bore, it's possible for the wheel/pulley/rotor to move to the Left, while everything else (bearings, spacers, brake bracket) stays in the original position ... (btw, there will be NO Movement to the Right though) .
BOTH bearing outer races would have to move within their bores
While the wheel is off, I would look closely at the installed bearings current positioning ... then i would remove the LEFT bearing and spacer sleeve without disturbing the Right bearing ... then check that Right bearing for having been moved from it's initial "Bottomed Out" position.

Thanks for feedback.
So I got wheel out and had a close look at bearings.
The rotor side is loose. Can remove by hand. Belt side looks okay.
Will have to look up notes but i had a bearing failure maybe 12mnths ago. Went to HD with part no, was given new bearings but different part no.

yes, not sure if just bearing at fault.
12months ago i had bearing blowout on rear wheel about 5km from home. cant remember which side
i changed front and rear bearings, had them removed and then i knocked them in with a socket after putting in freezer
is the bearing too small? or maybe I damaged hub when my bearing blewout? not sure now. Will take off front wheel to check those.
Interesting that Aussie81 had bearings changed and straight after the rotor is rubbing brake caliper mount.

Thanks so much for everyone's feedback, it has been really helpful!
I'm picking my bike up in the morning. The HD shop has put another set of bearings in it and done about 50ks on it and the wheel is still in the correct position. I will just keep monitoring it.
I can't get over how ridiculous the hub design is. I still don't understand why it was designed like that. There has to be a reason it's like that...
The HD guy is telling me the hub looks fine inside and the bearings have pressed in tight both times.... and so it should be, it's only done 19000 kms.
Seeing as im on the second set of new bearings, I'm thinking that if it moves again, I might put locktite on the bearings just not sure if that's a problem when I need to get them out again? Or if it will even work..
Or shorten the spacer and press the left hand bearing all the way home, then get a longer outer spacer made up?

What you can do (applies only to the 08-later wheels) is after Installing the Primary Bearing (Right on Rear), measure the height difference between the sleeve and the bearing pocket, then make a Bearing shim that is .010-.015" thinner (that would be your MAX "movement).
Examples Below ... NOT exact Dyna wheels
