Maintenance Free Driveshaft

Maintenance free my ##s! Who came up with that one?

Honda Performance First  -- IE: Rune, Fury, Shadow Ace ???

Performance at a bike show? Certainly not on the street.

My opinions only of course.

If you want a true maintenance free drive shaft see Kawasaki or another brand, cause this one's a

BITCH ,on my Valkyrie.

Not to mention bearing troubles out the wazzoo.

Can't find neutral with a Blood Hound.

Gas mileage like a small truck.

Wears out 250$ tires on the ass end like they were made of cotton.

But you know they kind of grow on you after a while.

I agree, just certain phrases sometimes set me off. I've ridden a Valk now for 130,000 miles and have yet to find a better bike, for me, overall; though at times I am tempted to buy a new one, but then I look around and repair what I have.

A year ago, it was a KLR650. Worked great, but was really messy and was constantly cleaning and lubing. Though it was really nice to be able to change the gearing easily.
