Final drive question

[Bigfoot]

Check out Bike Bandit The prices have come down greatly for a new one I had ended up buying my new one from the stealer but I used my military discount and got 10% off If I remmember correctly it cost about 516.00

Yep thats normal mate ,just dry Moly paste , thats what i have heard over and over again, No lube and this is what you get, Feel bad for you as Triumph stealers still dont lube them correctly to this day.
I hope you did not have to pay out of your pocket for this one .

Yes it did my extended warranty company wouldn't pay for it saying natural wear and tear cost me bout $1500 but that was because the service manger was able to get it from triumph for nothing so all I had to pay was labor and for the drive shaft if it wasn't for the service manager it would have cost me bout $5000

How bout the rebel's Vic?

Didn't hear anything back from her and I thought it for sure would set her off!
