Some month ago or so someone on the forum wrote about a part in the rear wheel drive assembly which is:
Part #20 (COLLAR B, RR) in the fiche:

http://www.hdlparts.com/fiche_section_detail.asp?section=148613&category=MOTORCYCLES&make=HONDA&year=2000&fveh=3474

The crux of the thread was that it can be installed either end and would not make a difference which way it is installed.

Well, that is absolutely incorrect!

Probably the largest threat is that it is pictured incorrectly in the fiche drawing. The orientation is wrong and should be facing the opposite way.  

The part actually pilots into a recess within the pumpkin and will not work it the part is in backwards even though the wheel may still go on and torque down.

Just wanted to mention this!
