Hey Phil.You got a car? Drive up. We are just going to sit in the camp site and socialize anyway. We have all ridden all the good roads before and I hear they are re-paving Spearfish Canyon. So drive up.
I agree. I've had other shaft drive bikes and none of them required lubing at every tire change. I've also never seen all the moly missing except when it was intentionally cleaned off, a nasty job :rolleyes1:, prior to a re-lube on my BMW at 30k miles! Something else may be going on here...I'd make sure they check the driveshaft alignment very closely...I think it is strange that there would be that much damage in just 8K miles. Were the splines actually dry? That moly paste lasts a long time.
We are just a few weeks out now so as a reminder, if you are camping, to:
Please call (605-642-2239) or email (chriscampground@gmail.com)
to let them know how many are coming please provide
# of people in your group
# of tents
Special needs such as electricity
vehicle i.e. bike, RV, bike w/trailer etc.
Mention the ST/NT Rally
Good find Ken. Used parts from NTs are not as readily available as some other (more common) bikes. Parting out a bike is a real pain. Keeping track of all the parts, advertising, packaging and shipping, and storing them all take tiime. But I'm glad some folks do it.final drive problem. There is one on eBay right now, see eBay item number:311581408095
Joe Norris. AKA MellowMellow, a friend of mine, Larry Hull, who lives just east of Sturgis and rides an NC700X rode over today to try to make contact with folks at the Rally and the owner of Chris's Campground told him he didn't know anything about a motorcycle group coming to Chris's this week. I told Larry that I knew you guys were coming and that most of you would be there tomorrow. I also realized that I don't know your last name.
