Tonight I started to go for a quick drive...noticed that I was goin nowhere fast...or rather nowhere really slow...as in at 0 mph.
Noticed a slight squeek squeek squeek last nite...figured I would take a look at the speedo drive on friday (payday). Looks like I will be looking tomorrow instead.
I believe that I can drop the front wheel just enough to slide the axle out and pull the drive...don't think I need to remove the front fender or remove the wheel completely..as far as I know the wheel should be able to just drop free. Been a long time since I did this. cb650 days..like16 yrs ago..
I will first put the wing on the center stand, remove the cable from the speedo and spin the front wheel to ensure the cable is indeed turning...
(before dropping the wheel to expose the drive)
Question is, the speedo drive on the gl-1100...is it the same as other years and models of honda? or specific to the gl..
We have a bike boneyard here, and the guy is really reasonable...but when it comes to making a sale...I don't trust many..
