steamer Posted October 10, 2010 Share #1 Posted October 10, 2010 I think I blew out my final drive on my 99rsv.We were out for the weekend,riding around the fingerlakes when after about 150 miles and several hour we made a pit stop.While rolling through the parking lot at slow speed I heard a god awful grinding, clanking,clicking noise coming from the final drive.Luckly since we were riding around the lakes we were only 25 mile from home.So we ended our weekend trip and headed straight home. got home ok,can't hear the noise at highway speed,but if sounds like it's coming apart when i roll the bike back and forth.Put it up on the jack,spun the rear wheel and it sounds really bad. Draned the oil, it was dark gray and smelled burnt.It was just changed out a couple weeks ago,I used mobil 1 gear oil. something has let go inside.But she still got us home.Anyway I'm looking for a new to me final drive,anyone do a trike kit that wants to sell there's.I contacted someone here on the classifieds but no answer yet.Probably out riding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongobobny Posted October 10, 2010 Share #2 Posted October 10, 2010 I have one from my '09 RSV from the Hannigan conversion with less than 8K on it. Give me a call and we can negotiate, and I will be home this afternoon if you want to pick it up. Name your price... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
