Where's the basket?
I might call it rough but not a basket case. It's all there, ready to ride.

I could ride it if one of my boys pulls me around with the Grizzly.

Man this section has gone crazy since the release of the new SP XP's. There are so many machine specific sites out there I would'nt be surprised if an XP site sprouted up.

I picked up a new toy, 05 Honda VTX1300. I needed something to slow my butt down.
Have you ever removed a rear wheel on a shaft drive? I need to replace the tire.

While you have the wheel off, check the splines on the shaft to see if they need any grease. A whole lot easier to do it when you have the tire already off.

On my Kawi, it's four bolts on the shaft, and then the axle bolts.

Thanks scooter but my kawi dealer did it for me. It was only 20 bucks more just to drop the bike off and let them do it.
I did change the final drive oil today.

So easy, a caveman can do it.
