The bearing is not falling out right? I think you mean the inner race moves when you move the crank? You should "pull" the crank all the way out, and move that inner racing all the way "back" towards the backplate as you can when you put the cone on. This way when you tighten up the flywheel it will not really move back and forth.

What is happening is, the front bearing just fall out!!! Or I can just push it back in to the crank case!!! just wth my fingers
Don't even have to use a bearing puller
Is it a manufacturer defect??

I would contact A Main Hobbies as they are the importer for the RB engine now and talk to them. It isn't normal but I can't say it is mfg defect. It would sound like it though. Best of Luck!
