There is no need to touch the wheel bearings. Simply remove the set screw and separate the rotor from the hub. You may have to pursuade the rotor with a hammer since they sometimes rust to the hub.
the w124 rotor comes off that easy? I thought the w123/124/126 were the same. I did the rotors on my w126 and I had to remove the hub, put the thing in a vice and remove the bolts on the rear of the disc to separate the two
