ATV bearings. Sealed no grease.

Hey OB. Just and fyi. Not sure how many check but I changed all my wheel bearings out on this ATV and found the rear bearings they shipped me had basically zero grease in them when I pulled the seals to inspect. The front we're fine but we're a different manufacturer.
I put more in them and installed them. I know you don't want so much it pushed the seal out but these were damn near dry. It's not something I usually check for but my neighbor who does motorcycle repair on the side told me to look. Said he always checks.
Anyone else do this?

Get a bearing greaser and fill with marine grease.

Yes just have to be careful not to damage the seal. You’d be surprised how many sealed bearings you get that barley have any grease in them. What kit was dry, all balls?

Common with Chinese bearings.bought new spindle for my mower from propower and the bearings last 10 minutes.
If you spin the bearing you can feel the grease
