I am going to drop my rear wheel, and I would like to know in cook book form;1, 2 ,3 ,4, ect of what to look for and what to lub and what lub goes on what part. I saw on search that you tighten the four final drive bolts last . I assume you have already tightened the wheel back on???
Thanks,

One more thing, are there any parts that should be replaced while I am inspecting the drive? I would order them before I drop the wheel. Parts like O rings or seals I already have the OEM rear wheel bearings. I know, if it ant broke don't try and fix it. Just trying to do a little preventive maintenance.
Thanks Again

There's no need to replace the thrust washer.

Just be sure it is there and in the correct place.

I can't find the dust seal #91253 433 761 or the thrust washer. Why can't I find them on the Honda parts list from direct line OEM parts. Went to town but no go.
Thanks,

Inspect your pinion cup and drive shaft.

Where do you live? Maybe someone in your area might be able to help that first time you work on it.

I looked at this link and the pictures. I have never had the rear end off the bike till seeing these. Does the swing arm have to be removed to gain access to the u-joint. If anything it's a good time of year here to clean and lube all these splines and slip joints as part of winter maintenance.

Thanks for sharing.

Brian,
No the swing arm does NOT have to be removed. Once you unbolt the rear end(4 nuts), pull rear end from bike. The drive shaft stays with the rear end and pulls out of the u-joint. When installing, make sure you have the swing arm level or higher. You install the rear end with the drive shaft connected. You will have a hard time installing it if you let the swingarm hang down.

Thanks F6, what about pulling the u-joint for inspection? The book says to remove the swing arm, is this necessary?

Brian,
The swing arm does not have to be removed to get the u-joint out.  Details at this link: http://www.rattlebars.com/mtz/ujoint.html  I found it easier to get the joint out while the swing arm was lowered to about a 45 degree angle instead of all the way down.  It is actually quite easy this way.

While you've got the wheel off go ahead and do the double bearing mod on the left side. I've got mine off to do the same maintence and the left bearing is almost toast. This will be the 4th bearing for that side in 78k miles  and it will be a double like the right. Easy mod listed in shoptalk. Cheesy
