I have a /5 that I was thinking of greasing the splines. Never done that since I got the bike. Any chance of getting that done? Would be nice doing it with some experience present.I have it mated to a spirit sidecar which I was going to take off to do some work on the bike anyway. I do have a small leak from the rear drive boot that I wanted to check into anyway. How big a job would this be????

Rear splines and tranny input? Anyway that would be no problem the group that show up can tackle anything, this job would be easy. Are you local? Pm mw

Hi, Mike! I'll try to make it this time. Spline lube? How long do you want it to take?

Mike. Is it a problem if there is no center stand on the /5? I had to remove it to put the subframe on for the hack. Been thinking of getting a floor jack for the bikes anyway. They opened a Harbor freight near me.
Eric
how about we put it on a lift?

Lift is always nice. I usually put my bikes on the center stand when on the lift. Specially if the back wheel is being removed.
With the help from FRANKO we will have two lifts going. Yep put it on the center stand or block and strap it down!

Well I finished putting my /6 back together this fall... even cranked it over... but I sure could use some help with fine tuning so I think I'll throw it on the trailer. The seat is being made right now and hopefully it will be on in time for the party. See you all there!

I will be there Mike! I am thinking of doing the pushrod seals on my RT, but I am not sure if they can be tapped down or if I should just replace them. It has been long enough since I dealt with them (1995) that I am leaning towards just replacing them.
19 BMWMOA Nationals under my belt, and I have no idea what I am doing.
bring it out we can rplace them. I saw Eric today but forgot to tell him about the 23rd so if ya see him tell him. They were ice riding
