And never, ever run it in gear on the c-stand. This is hard on the driveline. Better to let it sit than periodically starting it.
C,
Well you have peaked my intrest on this statement.
Let me see here, 38 yrs on 2 wheels, 9 bikes, 2 Connies with combined mileage of 211k, 3 Gold Wings, CB900C, CB650 and CB650SC, Suzuk GS850, another 175k combined and no damage to any drivetrain from Winter routine.
So can you please tell me how a roughly 80 to 90 lb. rear wheel spinning the gears with less stress then my 250lbs and bike weight, no to mention all the other torque caused by twistin the throttle, is going to do damage ?
It just doesn't seem to that big a problem, but I'm just guessing here, you know, with my limited experience.
Thanks for your input.
Ride safe all, and please, ATGATT.
Greg
