Is that a one piece Cush drive? Never seen a center piece like that.
What did you do to your other motorcycle today ?

Yessir. It is strange. I’ve always seen them separate.
Hung parts back together to keep them all accounted for. Pushed the old axle in from the other side while waiting on the new to get in. Going to change the belt and do the head bearing maintenance at the next oil change. That should be fun. Not even close to changing a chain on a Busa. They say the belts are good up to 100k but it seems my axle is at the end of the adjustment range so it’s definitely stretched some. Something to do next winter.

This brought back memories of my last gen2 tire change. Always torqued the rear axle nut to spec and, I’m the only one that works on my bikes yet, that nut got stuck halfway off and had to cut it and buy a another. It was the weirdest thing to see a nut get cross threaded as it’s coming off?
I would bet road debris hit the threads where it wasn't easily visible, and damaged them, then the nut gualled and binded when it made it to that spot.
Do you know anything about the Harley panhead motor?

No sir. Did you pick one up?
No, just curious about the best looking Harley motor ever. All those I see online have kick starters. I was wondering if the later models might have an electric starter and if they can produce 100 ponies or more and still be reliable. And why were they discontinued.
