I just relpaced the rear tire on my 2000 Valkyrie. When I removed the wheel I noticed the splines were dry and slightly worn, looked like .015"+.I also found an extra Oring (broken) approx42mm x 2.5 in the back of the hub, don't know where it came from? The hub O ring and the flange O ring were in place and ok.I greased everything up and put it back together; However now I'm a little worried!!
Question: I'm heading on a long trip in 2 weeks (approx 10,000miles) is this wear something to worry about? and any idea where this broken O ring came from?
Thanks.....Paddy
