Spline Lube


Gearing up for a spline lube, since the rear frame member is off.

Steps I performed, I knew I was going to remove the transmission

Remove Rear Frame/Seat
Remove Airbox/Tubes
Remove Battery/Battery Box
Remove Swingarm with Wheel/shocks connected (disconnect final drive from tranny)
Remove Clutch Release Mechanism
Remove Transmission
Clean up splines, relube
Clean up Clutch Release and re-grease


I had to order a new clutch throwout bearing, this little item set me back $28.00

After the splines were all put back together, I packed fresh grease in the swingarm bearings area, and put the rear section back together. The swing arm is no to difficult to align up centered. I use some wooden skewers that were just the right size as spacers as I tightened everything back up.
