It took a while but I finally got it done. There may be some changes to it as I think of things I may have forgot to include.

Anyway enjoy the adventure with us.

The biggest problem with the world is that most people can't get out of the way of their own ASS!

Awesome trip report!

Question: how many miles the u-joint had when it crap out?

BigMac (SoCal)

The u joint that went out only had 25,000 miles on it. It was one that I had made up to be a rebuildable joint. It was a balance issue that caused it to fail not lubrication. When I put in my spare I couldn't believe how much smoother the bike was. There was nothing wrong with the old joint I just replaced it when I had the bike apart to paint. I replaced all the bearings as well. The bike had 125,000 miles on it when I did the paint. It now has 157,000 miles on it.

Interesting report.  Glad I got to meet you the other day at Highland.   And you are correct mostly Harleys for sale at the end of the driveways.  The other thing we've noticed.  A lot of riders have their motorcycle sitting by the garage while they are mowing the lawn on their John Deere tractor.   Ride safe my friend.
