Not a lot of action over here so I guess I will start a thread on my current repair work. Transmission grub screw is loose so it is time to do some maintenance.
A little history first, when I picked this up a couple of years ago I flew up to Minneapolis from Denver and rode it home. I had several years experience on hacks and a lot of long distance riding on my R1150GS/CSC Friendship II rig so I figured piece of cake. It turns out that the wheel bearings were shot and the pusher wheel had a leak in it that eventually stopped me in Denver so I had to throw it on the trailer and haul it the last 100 miles to home in Edwards.
At least the races are still intact but the balls are no longer balls they are ovals.
